A novel method for transforming the thermophilic bacterium Geobacillus kaustophilus

Abstract Background Bacterial strains of the genus Geobacillus grow at high temperatures of 50–75 °C and could thus be useful for biotechnological applications. However, genetic manipulation of these species is difficult because the current techniques for transforming Geobacillus species are not eff...
