Abstract
A novel chemical compound, plasmid pUC1031, which was constructed from Streptomyces sp. 3022a chromosomal DNA and plasmid pBR322. Hybrid plasmid pUC1031 contains a functional tet gene promoter composed of streptomycete and E. coli DNA, and, thus, is useful as a cloning vehicle in recombinant DNA work. For example, using well known DNA methodology, a desired gene, for example, the insulin gene, can be inserted into pUC1031 and the resulting plasmid can then be transformed into a suitable host microbe which, upon culturing, produces the desired insulin.
