MATERIALS AND METHODS Construction of Chimeras. When possible, chimeric assembly
was performed using restriction sites common to both subunits {Sacl and Narl, see Figure 1,
al subunit). Other chimerasand point mutations were made, essentially as described
previously (Herlitze& Koenen, 1990), by performing two successive PCR amplifications. In
the first PCR (20 cycles: 94 C for 1 min; 48 C for 1 min; 72 C
