New multi-purpose high copy number vector with greater mitotic stability for diverse applications in fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

abstract：:The repABC replicons have an unusual structure, since they carry genes coding for partitioning (repA, repB) and replication (repC) proteins, which are organized in an operon. So far, the presence of these compact bi-functional modules has been reported only in the megaplasmids of the Rhizobiaceae and within the plasmi...
