Abstract excerpt
The original Casadaban technique for isolating fused cistrons encoding hybrid beta-galactosidase proteins used a Mucts62 prophage to align the upstream coding sequence and lacZ prior to selection. Kinetic analysis of araB-lacZ fusion colony emergence indicated that the required DNA rearrangements were regulated and responsive to conditions on selection plates. This has been cited as an example of "directed...
