title: pFJ265, a new cloning vehicle for Streptomyces.
abstract: A 9.3-kb plasmid, pNM100, was isolated from Streptomyces virginiae (NRRL 15156) and characterized. Streptomyces genes for thiostrepton and neomycin resistance were cloned into pNM100 to yield a small plasmid derivative, pFJ265, that is suitable for Streptomyces gene cloning. pFJ265 is a 9.2-kb nonconjugative plasmid and has a copy number of several hundred per chromosome.
