Abstract excerpt
We describe methods for transposon mutagenesis and allelic replacement in the facultative intracellular pathogen Francisella. Recombinant clones were constructed by insertion of partially cut F. tularensis or F. novicida DNA into pUC19 and then mutagenized with a mini-Tn10-Km transposon. F. novicida could be transformed with these plasmids either by a chemical transformation method or by electroporation, whereas...
