Abstract excerpt
Transposon sequencing (TnSeq) is a next-generation deep sequencing-based method to quantitatively assess the composition of complex mutant transposon libraries after pressure from selection. Although this method can be used for any organism in which transposon mutagenesis is possible, this chapter describes its use in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. More specifically, the methods for generating complex libraries...
