Viral Bacterial Artificial Chromosomes: Generation, Mutagenesis, and Removal of Mini‐F Sequences
BioMed Research International, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 Maintenance and manipulation of large DNA and RNA virus genomes had presented an obstacle for virological research. BAC vectors provided a solution to both problems as they can harbor large DNA sequences and can efficiently be modified using well‐established mutagenesis techniques in Escherichia coli.
