Replication of antibiotic resistance plasmid R6K DNA in vitro.

abstract：:Calf brain tubulin was subjected to isoelectric focusing and tryptic peptide map analysis. Results from isoelectric focusing experiments showed a total number of 17 well-resolved protein peaks. The number of peaks and the mass distribution under each peak remained the same when the concentration of protein or ampholyt...
