Construction and Characterization of a Lactose-Inducible Promoter System for Controlled Gene Expression in <i>Clostridium perfringens</i>
20 Nov 2010
Abstract excerpt
Clostridium perfringens is a Gram-positive anaerobic pathogen which causes many diseases in humans and animals. While some genetic tools exist for working with C. perfringens, a tightly regulated, inducible promoter system is currently lacking. Therefore, we constructed a plasmid-based promoter system that provided regulated expression when lactose was added. This plasmid (pKRAH1) is an Escherichia coli-C....
