Transforming the Untransformable: Application of Direct Transformation To Manipulate Genetically <named-content content-type="genus-species">Staphylococcus aureus</named-content> and <named-content content-type="genus-species">Staphylococcus epidermidis</named-content>
ABSTRACT The strong restriction barrier present in Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis has limited functional genomic analysis to a small subset of strains that are amenable to genetic manipulation. Recently, a conserved type IV restriction system termed SauUSI (which specifically r...
