ORBIT: a New Paradigm for Genetic Engineering of Mycobacterial Chromosomes

ABSTRACT Two efficient recombination systems were combined to produce a versatile method for chromosomal engineering that obviates the need to prepare double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) recombination substrates. A synthetic “targeting oligonucleotide” is incorporated into the chromosome via homologous reco...
