Large scale validation of an efficient CRISPR/Cas-based multi gene editing protocol in Escherichia coli

Abstract Background The exploitation of the CRISPR/Cas9 machinery coupled to lambda (λ) recombinase-mediated homologous recombination (recombineering) is becoming the method of choice for genome editing in E. coli. First proposed by Jiang and co-workers, the strategy has been subsequently fine-tuned...
