CLONING GENES FROM STREPTOMYCES AVERMITILIS FOR AVERMECTIN BIOSYNTHESIS AND THE METHODS FOR THEIR USE

There are disclosed plasmids containing DNA isolated from Streptomyces avermitilis, the microorganism which is used to prepare avermectin compounds, identified as pAT1, pVE650 pVE855, pVE859, pVE1446, pVE923, and pVE924 which contain the genetic information for the biosynthesis of the avermectins.

Zusammenfassung:There are disclosed plasmids containing DNA isolated from Streptomyces avermitilis, the microorganism which is used to prepare avermectin compounds, identified as pAT1, pVE650 pVE855, pVE859, pVE1446, pVE923, and pVE924 which contain the genetic information for the biosynthesis of the avermectins. Methods for the isolation of such plasmid and for the manipulation of the plasmids to alter the formation of the avermectin compound are also disclosed.
