ABSTRACT:
Methods are provided for preparing improved fermentation strains of the family Enterobacteriaceae which comprise the steps of eliminating the cryptic plasmid from the progenitor strain thereby creating the improved strain. Methods for reducing the mobilization properties of resident plasmids in an Enterobacteriaceae strain containing a cryptic plasmid are also provided. The present invention provides the nucleic acid sequence of pS, a cryptic plasmid found inPantoeawhich can be used to identify the cryptic plasmid in strains of Enterobacteriaceae.
