ABSTRACT:
DNA plasmids are described which are selected mutants in which an altered repressor gene leads to high copy number replication. Elements in the plasmids are modified in such a way that readthrough expression of heterologous DNA inserted in the plasmid will not continue into the replication primer strand. Deletions resulting from interference with replication primer strand transcription are thereby avoided.
