title: [A new resolution vector with cry1Ac10 gene based on Bacillus thuringiensis transposon Tn4430].
abstract: A new resolution vector with cry1Ac10 gene based on TnpI-mediated site-specific recombination system of Bacillus thuringiensis(Bt) transposon Tn4430 was developed. The gene cry1Ac10, encoding a protoxin against plutella xylostella larvae, and the gene ori1030, from a plasmid of wide type Bacillus thuringiensis, were inserted into two copy sets of RES sites, named pBMB801. When pBMB801 was introduced into crystal negative Bt host BMB171, antibiotic resistance genes and other non-Bt DNA can be selectively eliminated. This recombinant plasmid was found very stable without antibiotic selection. The resulting strain only contained Bt DNA and is free of antibiotic resistance genes. This strategy should facilitate regulatory approval for its development as a commercial biopesticide.
