title: Plasmid containing a DNA ligase gene from Haemophilus influenzae.
abstract: A ligase gene from Haemophilus influenzae was cloned into the shuttle vector pDM2 . Although the plasmid did not affect X-ray sensitivity, it caused an increase in UV sensitivity of the wild-type but not excision-defective H. influenzae and a decrease in UV sensitivity of the rec-1 mutant.
