Construction of recombination-deficient strains of Streptococcus gordonii by disruption of the recA gene.

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Degenerate oligonucleotide primers were used in a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to amplify a region of the recA sequence of Streptococcus gordonii Challis. The resulting PCR fragment was cloned into the suicide vector pAM6199 and introduced into strain Challis, giving rise to recombination-deficient strains in which the recA gene was specifically inactivated.
