Abstract
We have determined the complete nucleotide sequence of pAL5000, a plasmid from Mycobacterium fortuitum; the plasmid contains 4837 bp with 65% G + C. Five open reading frames (ORF1 to ORF5) have been identified. A number of sequences corresponding to palindromes, repeats, a helix-turn-helix motif, a signal sequence and repetitive amino acid motifs can be identified. This sequence should facilitate the construction of vectors based on pAL5000 for transfer and expression studies in mycobacteria.
