Abstract

The present invention relates to new plasmids isolated from Corynebacterium glutamicum, plasmid pGA1 and pGA2, which are compatible with one another. In addition, the present invention relates to recombinant plasmids and to plasmid vectors (shuttle vectors) containing the new plasmids. The plasmids and plasmid vectors of the present invention are suitable for use with genetic engineering to improve bacteria strains.
