Transformation Frequency of a mariner-Based Transposon in Rickettsia rickettsii [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 2011
ABSTRACTTransformation frequencies of amariner-based transposon system inRickettsia rickettsiiwere determined using a plaque assay system for enumeration and isolation of mutants. Sequence analysis of insertion sites in bothR. rickettsiiandR. prowazekiiindicated that insertions were random.
