Recombineering in Streptococcus mutans Using Direct Repeat-Mediated Cloning-Independent Markerless Mutagenesis (DR-CIMM)
Studies of the dental caries pathogen Streptococcus mutans have benefitted tremendously from its sophisticated genetic system. As part of our own efforts to further improve upon the S. mutans genetic toolbox, we previously reported the development of the first cloning-independent markerless mutagenesis (CIMM) system for S. mutans and illustrated how this approach could be adapted for use in man...
متن کاملCloning-independent and counterselectable markerless mutagenesis system in Streptococcus mutans.
Insertion duplication mutagenesis and allelic replacement mutagenesis are among the most commonly utilized approaches for targeted mutagenesis in bacteria. However, both techniques are limited by a variety of factors that can complicate mutant phenotypic studies. To circumvent these limitations, multiple markerless mutagenesis techniques have been developed that utilize either temperature-sensi...
متن کاملMarkerless multiple-gene-deletion system for Streptococcus mutans.
Inactivation or selective modification is essential to elucidate the putative function of a gene. The present study describes an improved Cre-loxP-based method for markerless multiple gene deletion in Streptococcus mutans, the principal etiological agent of dental caries. This modified method uses two mutant loxP sites, which after recombination creates a double-mutant loxP site that is poorly ...
متن کاملCloning-independent markerless gene editing in Streptococcus sanguinis: novel insights in type IV pilus biology
Streptococcus sanguinis, a naturally competent opportunistic human pathogen, is a Gram-positive workhorse for genomics. It has recently emerged as a model for the study of type IV pili (Tfp)-exceptionally widespread and important prokaryotic filaments. To enhance genetic manipulation of Streptococcus sanguinis, we have developed a cloning-independent methodology, which uses a counterselectable ...
متن کاملBacterial Artificial Chromosome Mutagenesis Using Recombineering
Gene expression from bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clones has been demonstrated to facilitate physiologically relevant levels compared to viral and nonviral cDNA vectors. BACs are large enough to transfer intact genes in their native chromosomal setting together with flanking regulatory elements to provide all the signals for correct spatiotemporal gene expression. Until recently, the u...
