RESUMO

The first part of the histidine operon of Salmonella typhimurium, hisGpeaGD, has been cloned onto the vector plasmid mini-ColE1 (pVH51). The resulting plasmid, pWB91, has a single EcoRI site and is 11,500 base pairs in size. The HindII restriction map was determined by the method of two-dimensional cross-annealing between a partial digest pattern and a complete digest pattern. The restriction fragment containing the genetic control region was identified with the aid of the small (35-base pair) internal deletion 01242 and the observation that heteroduplexed restriction fragments containing this deletion have markedly reduced mobility on polyacrylamide gels. The genetic control region was then mapped in more detail with other restriction enzymes. The genetic orientation of the restriction map was determined with the aid of several deletions of integral HindII fragments generated in vitro.
