Transposon mutagenesis as an approach to improved understanding of Borrelia pathogenesis and biology
Transposon insertion provides a method for near-random mutation of bacterial genomes, and has been utilized extensively for the study of bacterial pathogenesis and biology. This approach is particularly useful for organisms that are relatively refractory to genetic manipulation, including Lyme dise...
