Abstract
The characterization of components for a food-grade vector for Staphyl ococcus carnosus employing utilization of sucrose as a selection marke r is described. The genes mediating sucrose uptake and hydrolysis were isolated from Staphylococcus xylosus. The replicon for the vector was derived from the S. xylosus plasmid pSX267. The applicability of the replicon and the selection principle in S. carnosus is discussed.
