Use of Salmonella phage P22 for transduction in Escherichia coli. |
|
| Authors: | B L Neal P K Brown and P R Reeves |
| Abstract: | A cosmid (pPR1347) carrying both the rfb gene cluster and the rfc gene of a Salmonella group B serovar has been constructed; Escherichia coli K-12 strains carrying this cosmid produce long-chain O antigen, are sensitive to phage P22, and can be transduced by P22. Some of the benefits of P22 transduction are now available for studying E. coli and potentially other genera. |
