Enhanced stability of a 2μ-based recombinant plasmid in diploid yeast

The stability of a 2 mu -based recombinant plasmid, pJDB219, has been compared in glucose-limited chemostat cultures of two haploid strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and a diploid derived from them. The stability of the recombinant plasmid differed in the two haploid hosts but was greatest in the...

Zusammenfassung:The stability of a 2 mu -based recombinant plasmid, pJDB219, has been compared in glucose-limited chemostat cultures of two haploid strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and a diploid derived from them. The stability of the recombinant plasmid differed in the two haploid hosts but was greatest in the diploid. Enhanced stability in the diploid is probably a function of both the increased copy number and reduced selective burden of the plasmid.
