An efficient method for systematic mutational analysis of the Escherichia coli genome was developed. It entails Tn5supF transposition to lambda-E. coli hybrid phage clones (Kohara library) and then transduction of recipient cells to Sup+. Essential and nonessential genes are distinguished by the ability of insertion mutant phage to form haploid versus only heterozygous partial diploid bacterial recombinants.
开发了一种对大肠杆菌基因组进行系统突变分析的有效方法。该方法包括将Tn5supF转座到λ-大肠杆菌杂交噬菌体克隆(小原文库),然后将受体细胞转导为Sup+。通过插入突变噬菌体形成单倍体与仅形成杂合部分二倍体细菌重组体的能力来区分必需基因和非必需基因。
