  • Title: Restriction endonuclease mapping of ColE2-P9 and ColE3-CA38 plasmids.
    Author: Watson R, Visentin LP.
    Journal: Gene; 1980 Sep; 10(4):307-18. PubMed ID: 6253352.
    Abstract:
    Using single and double restriction-endonuclease digestions, 16 and 17 cleavage sites have been mapped for the ColE2-P9 and ColE3-CA38 plasmids, respectively. One or more sites for AvaI, BglI, EcoRI, HincII, PvuI, PvuII, SmaI and XhoI endonucleases were found in both plasmids, two BglII sites were found only in ColE2-P9, and one KpnI site was unique to ColE3-CA38. ColE2-P9 was found to be slightly smaller than ColE3-CA38, 4.4 Md compared to 4.6 Md. Eleven restriction sites are common to both plasmids in that they are identically placed relative to each other. These sites define a continuous DNA segment equal to over 60% of each plasmid. The remaining portions of the plasmids, which contain the non-homologous regions identified by Inselburg and Johns (1975) have no restriction sites in common, and differ in size by about 0.2 Md.
