Abstract excerpt
Mycobacterium intracellulare is a slow-growing pathogenic mycobacterium closely related to Mycobacterium avium. In contrast to Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis BCG, M. intracellulare has received little attention as a model species for studies of mycobacterial molecular biology and genetics. This study shows that M. intracellulare 1403 (ATCC 35761) can be transformed by electroporation with high...
