Abstract excerpt
Progress in understanding genetic regulatory controls in the Actinomycetes has been rate limited by the properties of in vivo transcriptional probes. We have developed a set of plasmid- and transposon-based promoter-probe vectors that employ the Vibrio harveyi luciferase-encoding luxAB cassette as a reporter of transcription. The primary advantages of luciferase (Lux) over other reporter gene products are: (i)...
