The cryptic plasmid pCI305 from Lactococcus Zuctis subsp. lactis UC317 was screened for incompatibility with a range of cloning vectors and was found to be incompatible with the theta-replicating plasmids pAM401 and pIL253. In contrast, lactococcal... Read More about Incompatibility properties of the narrow-host-range lactococcal plasmid pCI305..
