Title: A simple and efficient system for the construction of phoA gene fusions in gram-negative bacteria. Author: Duchêne AM, Patte J, Gutierrez C, Chandler M. Journal: Gene; 1992 May 01; 114(1):103-7. PubMed ID: 1316865. Abstract: We have developed a two-plasmid system for generating gene fusions between phoA and cloned genes encoding envelope proteins. The vector plasmid carries a temperature-sensitive replication system and can be rescued at high temperature by insertion of an IS1-based transposon carrying the ori region of pBR322 and a phoA gene lacking transcription and translation initiation signals. The vector plasmid also carries the transfer origin of the conjugative plasmid, F, permitting transfer into a suitable recipient strain. We have used this system in the analysis of the bla gene cloned from pBR322.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
