✦ Synopsis


Two cryptic plasmids pMG110 (10.5 kb) and pMG120 (14.5 kb) isolated from Streptomyces luteolutescens were cleaved by restriction endonucleases Bg/II, KpnI, and SalGI. A physical map was constructed for pMG110. After denaturation and intrastrand reannealing, two types of snap-back structures were identified by electron microscopy, differing in the size of the loop (type 1, 1 kb; type 2, 1.6 kb), whereas the stem of both structures was about 190 bp long. Stem-loop structures of similar size were also observed in pMG120. In rare cases, both types of elements were present on the same DNA molecule. The analysis of Bg/II- and KpnI-generated fragments allowed the localization of the elements at two alternative positions on the physical map of pMG110.

## Abstract Tumour‐associated genetic changes frequently involve DNA translocation or deletion. Many of these events will have arisen from initial genomic damage, induced by either the activity of endogenous metabolic processes or from exposure to environmental genotoxic agents. Although initial ge
