Abstract
A method for rapid purification of plasmid DNA from lactic streptococci, utilizing microliter quantities of reagents, was developed by combination of a short lysozyme-mutanolysin cell wall digestion with a modification of the Escherichia coli plasmid isolation procedure of McMaster et al. (Anal. Biochem. 109:47-54, 1980). The preparations obtained were highly enriched for covalently closed circular DNA, and the method was applicable to plasmids of at least 40 megadaltons. Centrifugation in CsCl-ethidium bromide density gradients was not required.Entities:
