Molecular characterization of Chlamydia trachomatis and Chlamydia psittaci plasmids [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1986
Plasmids from Chlamydia trachomatis LGV-434 (serotype L2) and Chlamydia psittaci meningopneumonitis strain Cal-10 were cloned into the BamHI and EcoRI sites of pBR322, respectively. The recombinant plasmids pCTL2 and pCPMn, each containing an entire respective chlamydial plasmid, were transformed into Escherichia coli.
