Abstract excerpt
Complete genome sequences are now available for many bacterial species that lack sophisticated genetic tools. We describe the development of a broad-host-range cre-lox system that allows antibiotic marker recycling in a variety of gram-negative bacteria. This system consists of an allelic exchange vector bearing a kanamycin cassette flanked by loxP sites and a tetracycline-resistant IncP plasmid that provides...
