ESTABLISHMENT OF TRANSFORMATION SYSTEM OF STREPTOMYCES LINCOLNENSIS
林可链霉菌转化系统的建立

Transformation system of S. lincolnensis was established to improve lincomycin--producing strains by Gene retransformation Technology. Under optimal conditions, 10(11) protoplasts were prepared from 25 ml SM culture medium, and the regeneration frequency of protoplasts was 16%. The transformation frequency of pIJ702 was up to 5.5 x 10(5)/microgram DNA. The results revealed that gene manipulation in S. lincolnensis was facile as that in S. lividans.
