Abstract excerpt
Enterococcus faecalis is a gram-positive commensal bacterium of the gastrointestinal tract and an important opportunistic pathogen. Despite the increasing clinical significance of the enterococci, genetic analysis of these organisms has thus far been limited in scope due to the lack of advanced genetic tools. To broaden the repertoire of genetic tools available for manipulation of E.faecalis, we investigated the...
