Abstract excerpt
A microarray transposon-based tracking approach was used to identify Campylobacter jejuni genes which are required for cell growth at 37°C, under a microaerophilic atmosphere and on a rich Mueller-Hinton medium. A transposon-based mutant library, comprised of 7,201 individual mutants was constructed, representing 4.48× coverage of the genome. An analysis of genes lacking a transposon insertion revealed 195...
