Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex
- Editor's Pick Research Article | Molecular Biology and PhysiologyDevelopment of a Counterselectable Transposon To Create Markerless Knockouts from an 18,432-Clone Ordered Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus Calmette-Guérin Mutant Resource
While speeding up research for many fields of biology (e.g., yeast, plant, and Caenorhabditis elegans), genome-wide ordered mutant collections are still elusive in mycobacterial research. We developed methods to generate such resources in a time- and cost-effective manner and developed a newly engineered transposon from which unmarked mutants can be efficiently...
