title: Molecular cloning of Proteus morganii phenylalanine deaminase gene in Escherichia coli.
abstract: The gene for phenylalanine deaminase (PAD) of Proteus morganii strain 2815 has been isolated on a 6.3-kb HindIII restriction fragment and cloned within RP4-prime plasmids, pYB2321 and pYB2322, in both orientations. Expression of the cloned gene in Escherichia coli strains was comparable to that in P. morganii 2815. The hybrid plasmids mobilized the 2815 chromosome with trajectories in reverse directions from an origin between ser-2 and ade-1, suggesting the map location of the PAD gene.
