High efficiency generalized transduction in Escherichia coli O157:H7
2013-01-10
Abstract excerpt
Genetic manipulation in enterohemorrhagic E. coli O157:H7 is currently restricted to recombineering, a method that utilizes the recombination system of bacteriophage lambda, to introduce gene replacements and base changes inter alia into the genome. Bacteriophage 933W is a prophage in E. coli O157:H7 strain EDL933, which encodes the genes ( stx2AB ) for the production of Shiga toxin which is the basis for the...
