Vectors with restriction-site banks. I. pJRD158, a 3903-bp plasmid containing 28 unique cloning sites.
A DNA fragment has been constructed that contains many unique cloning sites not present in currently used Escherichia coli plasmid cloning vehicles. Insertion of this fragment into a modified version of pBR322 results in an AmpRTetR vector (pJRD158) of 3903 bp containing 28 unique cloning sites, four "almost unique" cloning sites, and eight unassigned unique 6-bp palindromes. The plasmid has the additional advantages of very high copy number and altered incompatibility. The latter permits it to be stably maintained in the same host as pBR322.
