PY - 2004 DA - 2004/04/14 TI - pB264, a small, mobilizable, temperature sensitive plasmid from Rhodococcus JO - BMC Microbiology SP - 15 VL - 4 IS - 1 AB - Gram-positive bacteria of the genus Rhodococcus have shown an extraordinary capacity for metabolizing recalcitrant organic compounds. One hindrance to the full exploitation of Rhodococcus is the dearth of genetic tools available for strain manipulation. To address this issue, we sought to develop a plasmid-based system for genetic manipulation of a variety of Rhodococcus strains.
