Several derivatives of phages Mu and D108 have been isolated that carry an internal deletion generated by one of the IS1 components of a Tn9 transposon located in the A, B, or S gene of the prenatal phage. The deletions remove most of the lytic functions of the phage but leave intact either genes A and B or gene A and the left and the right end of the phages. These deleted derivatives, called mini-Mu and mini-D108, were physically characterized by electron microscopy and digestion with restriction enzymes. Mini-Mu and mini-D108, which carry an antibiotic resistance marker, are described and some of their genetic properties are summarized in the paper by Toussaint et al. (1981).
已经分离出噬菌体Mu和D108的几种衍生物，它们带有由位于前噬菌体A、B或S基因中的Tn9转座子的一个IS1元件产生的内部缺失。这些缺失去除了噬菌体的大部分裂解功能，但使基因A和B或基因A以及噬菌体的左端和右端保持完整。这些缺失的衍生物，称为微型Mu和微型D108，通过电子显微镜和限制性酶消化进行了物理表征。携带抗生素抗性标记的微型Mu和微型D108在图森特等人（1981年）的论文中进行了描述，并总结了它们的一些遗传特性。
