Abstract excerpt
At present, only a limited number of Bifidobacterium species are amenable to genetic manipulation using mutagenesis. This lack of genetic accessibility among the majority of bifidobacterial strains represents a significant roadblock for the study of gene function and expression in these potential probiotics. Genetic tools for generating mutants are difficult to develop for bifidobacteria, as they require...
