Abstract excerpt
A plasmid vector was designed, constructed, and used for the repeated retrieval of the bvgA gene from a number of Bordetella pertussis strains that, due to mutations in this gene, exhibited interesting phenotypes regarding the regulation of virulence genes. The vector was used in a scheme called...
