title: Molecular cloning and transposition of a kanamycin resistance determinant from Campylobacter jejuni between replicons in Escherichia coli.
abstract: This paper reports a restriction map of a fragment of DNA encoding kanamycin resistance cloned from plasmid DNA of Campylobacter jejuni ABA94 in the recombinant plasmid pRS9421-1. In transposition experiments, kanamycin-resistant R751::km9421 transconjugants appeared at frequencies of 10(-7) per donor cell. These transconjugants harboured a plasmid 4 kb larger than the parental 49 kb plasmid R751. Restriction enzyme analysis and Southern blot hybridization of these transconjugants showed that the kanamycin resistant determinant had transposed from recombinant plasmid pRS9421-1 to plasmid R751.
