Abstract excerpt
The use of optimally methylation-tolerant mcrA- mcrB- strains has been shown to produce an over tenfold increase in the plating efficiencies of mammalian genomic libraries, compared to a superior conventional phage host strain LE392 which is mcrB+. However, there is an even more significant effect of mcr restriction. Amongst the recombinants recovered with an mcrB+ host, we have found that there is an additional...
