Depositor Comments

Insert was cloned from ~base pair 5015 to ~500 of the circular ColE1 plasmid, where numbering begins within the colicin E1 gene. The ColE1 sequences include both the promoter for colicin E1 and for E1 immunity protein, which is transcribed in the opposite direction from the colicin gene. The cloned DNA does not include the intact kil (lysis protein) gene.
