Restriction digests of the clone give the following sizes (kb): BamHI--5.7, 2.3; EcoRI--4.6, 2.7, 0.64; PvuII--2.5, 2.0, 1.5, 0.65, 0.5, 0.35; SacI--7.0, 0.52; XhoI--4.9, 2.4, 0.7.

The insert contains the following restriction sites (approximate kb from the 5' end): BamHI--2.9; EcoRI--4.5; KpnI--0.2; NcoI--0.6, 0.7; PvuII--0.6, 0.85, 2.3, 4.3; SacI--1.0, 1.5; XhoI--0.8, 1.5.

To obtain a high yield, grow the culture in minimal media with casamino acids (M9), followed by chloramphenicol amplification to increase the plasmid copy number.
