Abstract excerpt
Conditional lethal mutants are a valuable tool for studying essential genes in bacteria, as they allow for the controlled expression of the gene of interest under specific conditions. In this study, we present a protocol for generating conditional lethal mutants in Clostridioides difficile using the Golden Gate cloning technique. The strategy involves two steps: (1) introducing an inducible copy of the gene of...
