Sequence-Defined Transposon Mutant Library of
We constructed a near-saturation transposon mutant library for Burkholderia thailandensis, a low-virulence surrogate for the causative agent of melioidosis (Burkholderia pseudomallei). A primary set of nearly 42,000 unique mutants (~7.5 mutants/gene) was

The identification of surface proteins of Burkholderia pseudomallei
Burkholderia pseudomallei, the causative agent of the disease melioidosis is a human pathogen endemic in Northern Australia and South-East Asia. At present there is no available vaccine or effective treatment for this disease. Surface proteins play crucial roles in the host-pathogen interaction and have been exploited as vaccine candidates and ...
