A 2 .mu.m plasmid vector for transforming yeast, especially brewing yeast, much which comprises a DNA sequence allowing propagation of the plasmid in bacteria, two copies of the 74 base pair FLP recombination site of the 2 .mu.m plasmid in direct orientation and a DNA sequence coding for a protein or peptide of interest. The plasmid is so constructed that in yeast the bacterial DNA sequence is between the two recombination sites which are in direct orientation and is spontaneously lost following recombination. A 'gene of interest' is preferable inserted at the SnaBI site.
