[Localization of structural genes of Vibrio cholerae cholerae toxin using the recombinant plasmid RP4omega elt].
The recombinant plasmid RP4 omega elt carrying Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin elt genes with 70-80% homology with genes vct of Vibrio cholerae has been constructed. We used this plasmid to determine localization of the cholerae toxin genes vct on the map of Vibrio cholerae cholerae. Two types of the donors were revealed in matings of 10 strains of V. cholerae cholerae 569B/RP4 omega elt with the polyauxotrophic recipients RV31 and RV175: some strains had enhanced frequency of mobilization of ilv-1 and lys-6 markers, the others--of trp-1. Our data suggest that structural vct genes are located within two regions of V. cholerae cholerae 569B chromosome: trp-1 and ilv-1--lys-6.
