Abstract: Described is a suicide expression vector for expressing a heterologous peptide, polypeptide or protein in a selected host cell.  The vector comprises: (i) a first nucleotide sequence encoding the heterologous peptide, polypeptide or protein (e.g. sperm antigens, esterases capable of hydrolysing organophosphates and insecticidal toxins) operably linked to a first promoter sequence; (ii) a second nucleotide sequence encoding a restriction enzyme or functional portion thereof operably linked to a second promoter sequence, said second promoter sequence being inducible; and (iii) one or more cleavage site(s) for the restriction enzyme or functional portion thereof, the cleavage site(s) being absent from the chromosomal DNA of the host cell.  Upon introduction of the vector into the host cell, induced expression of the restriction enzyme or functional portion thereof from the second nucleotide sequence brings about the cleavage of the suicide expression vector.  The vector is useful for the production of microorganisms intended for environmental release in the applications of, for example, vaccine baits for sterilisation of vermin, compositions for bioremediation of contaminated soils and waste, and insecticidal compositions for crop spraying.
