Allelic replacement in Staphylococcus aureus with inducible counter-selection.
Plasmid - 1 Jan 2006
Bae Taeok, Schneewind Olaf
Abstract excerpt
A method for rapid selection of allelic replacement mutations in the chromosome of Staphylococcus aureus is described. Plasmid pKOR1, an Escherichia coli/S. aureus shuttle vector, permits rapid cloning via lambda recombination and ccdB selection. Plasmid transformation of staphylococci and growth at 43 degrees C, a non-permissive condition for pKOR1 replication, selects for homologous recombination and pKOR1...
