Simple phagemid-based system for generating allele replacements in Escherichia coli.

Abstract

We describe a phagemid-based system for rapidly generating chromosomal allele replacements in two steps. The system utilizes simple vector-determined selection procedures for each step and requires only that the target strain be male and sup+ (nonsuppressing for amber mutations).
