Abstract
Optimal conditions for protoplast formation in the moenomycin-producing strain S712 of S. bambergiensis were developed. The protoplasts of this strain were transformed with DNA of plasmids pVG101 and pIJ350. The plasmids isolated from the transformants and designated as pVG101SB and pIJ350SB respectively were used for transformation of the initial culture protoplasts. No significant increase in the transformation efficiency was observed. Studies with the plasmid retransformation from S. bambergiensis S712 to S. lividans 66 and vice verse were conducted. Limitation of the plasmid replication during the retransformation in these strains was not detected. Partial restriction analysis of plasmids pVG101 and pVG101SB as well as pIJ350 and pIJ350SB showed that the used restriction enzymes had the same effect on the respective plasmids. Genetic stability of the plasmids in S. bambergiensis S712 was studied. It is concluded that plasmids pVG101 and pIJ350 can be used as vector molecules for this strain.
