Abstract excerpt
We recently developed a platform where phage-transducing particles optimize DNA delivery to a wide range of hosts. Here, we use this platform to optimize DNA transduction into hosts that naturally restrict specific DNA sequences. We first show that a specific plasmid is restricted for transduction into a particular Salmonella strain. Using the platform, we select for a mutated plasmid that overcomes the...
