RESUMO
We determined the complete nucleotide sequence of the 6354-base-pair plasmid pHV2 of the archaebacterium Halobacterium volcanii. This plasmid is present in approximately six copies per chromosome. We have generated a strain, H. volcanii WFD11, cured of pHV2 by treatment of liquid cultures with ethidium bromide. We describe PEG-mediated transformation of H. volcanii WFD11 with intact pHV2 and with a form of pHV2 marked by a 93-base-pair deletion generated in vitro.
