A useful gene cassette for conditional knock-down of essential genes by targeted promoter replacement in Mycobacteria

A direct method to study essential genes is to construct conditional knock-down mutants by replacement of their native promoter by an inducible one. In Mycobacteria, replacement of an essential gene promoter with an anhydrotetracycline inducible one was successfully used but required a multi-step ap...
