Abstract

Gluconobacter oxydans ATCC 9937, which produces 2,5-diketogluconic acid, an intermediate in vitamin C synthesis, has three plasmids of sizes 27.7 kb (pVJ1), 12.3 kb (pVJ2) and 18 kb (pVJ4). A restriction map was constructed of pVJ1. A potential glucose dehydrogenase gene was located on pVJ1 using the polymerase chain reaction with heterologous primers. Two other G. oxydans strains had no detectable plasmid DNA (IFO 12258) and a plasmid (pVJ3) of 9.4 kb (IFO 3293), respectively.
