Abstract excerpt
Blaster cassettes are of significant value in functional genomics, as they represent tools with which to inactivate duplicated or homologous genes in an individual organism. We have constructed a novel blaster module which allows repeated gene deletion in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans. Because bacterial resistance marker cassettes are employed as flanking repeats in direct orientation, the blaster...
