Tn402: a new transposable element determining trimethoprim resistance that inserts in bacteriophage lambda

J A Shapiro et al. J Bacteriol. 1977 Mar.

Abstract

We have found that the trimethoprim resistance determinant of the IncP plasmid R751 (Jacob et al., 1977; Jobanputra and Datta, 1974) transposes to bacteriophage lambda. We call this transposable element Tn402.
