Novel genetic tools for diaminopimelic acid selection in virulence studies of Yersinia pestis.
Molecular studies of bacterial virulence are enhanced by expression of recombinant DNA during infection to allow complementation of mutants and expression of reporter proteins in vivo. For highly pathogenic bacteria, such as Yersinia pestis, these studies are currently limited because deliberate int...
