Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 22
Claim 1
Independent Claim 65 words
A recombinant vector plasmid which is a recombinant of a DNA fragment containing a gene expressible in a microorganism belonging to the genus Corynebacterium or Brevibacterium and a plasmid autonomously replicable in a microorganism of the genus Corynebacterium or Brevi- bacterium said recombinant being autonomously replicable in a microorganism of the genus Corynebacterium or Brevibacterium and being detectable by the expression of the introduced gene.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 65 words
A recombinant vector plasmid which is a recombinant of a DNA fragment containing a gene expressible in a microorganism belonging to the genus Corynebacterium or Brevibacterium and a plasmid autonomously replicable in a microorganism of the genus Corynebacterium or Brevi- bacterium said recombinant being autonomously replicable in a microorganism of the genus Corynebacterium or Brevibacterium and being detectable by the expression of the introduced gene.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 16 words
