An inducible transposon mutagenesis approach for the intracellular human pathogen Chlamydia trachomatis

2021-11-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Chlamydia trachomatis is a prolific human pathogen that can cause serious long-term conditions if left untreated. Recent developments in Chlamydia genetics have opened the door to conducting targeted and random mutagenesis experiments to identify gene function. In the present study, an inducible transposon mutagenesis approach was developed for C. trachomatis using a self-replicating vector...
