Abstract

The gene responsible for dechlorination of 4-chlorobenzoate (4CBA) was cloned in E. coli XL1-Blue from Pseudomonas sp. DJ-12. The cloned cell of E. coli Cjl had the hybrid pBluescript SK(+) plasmid, into which about 9.5 kb genomic DNA fragment of PseudOmonas sp. DJ-12 was inserted. The subclone of pCJlOl was constructed by inserting the 3.4 kb EcoRI-HindIII fragment of pCJl into the vector. Those cloned cells could be simply selected by halo formation around the colonies which was the precipitate of AgCl produced by reaction of AgNO$_{3}$ and chloride ion liberated by bacterial dechlorination of 4CBA- Such a plate assay method was standardized by the procedure that the colonies grown for 2 days on the Cl$^{-}$-free plate medium containing 1 mM 4CBA were flooded with 0.1 M AgNO$_{3}$ solution.
