Abstract

As previously shown there are 2 highly homologous genes in H. halobium encoding gas vacuole proteins (GVP). These genes are located on the plasmid pHH1 (gene for GVP-A) and on the chromosome (gene for GVP-B). Recently copies of both genes were also located on minor circular DNA (MCD), a heterogeneous collection of extrachromosomal DNA mols. which occur in very low concns. in H. halobium. The origin of MCD is discussed using the gvp genes as markers.
