The complete nucleotide sequence of cosmid vector pTL5: location and origin of its genetic components.
The complete nucleotide sequence (5793 bp) of the cosmid vector pTL5 and the origin of its genetic components has been determined. Cosmid pTL5, a derivative of cosmid vector pHC79, is composed of genetic components from pBR322, bacteriophage lambda and the hybrid lambdoid bacteriophage Charon (Ch) 4A cohesive ends (cos) region. The Ch4A cos region contains genetic components from two bacteriophages, the lambda cos-left arm and the phi 80 cos-right arm regions. The Ch4A cos region has been used in the construction of many other cosmid-type vectors, some of which have been sequenced and entered into the GenBank database.
