Abstract

Animals Cattle Cattle Diseases Chromosomes Bacterial DNA Transposable Elements DNA Bacterial Escherichia coli O157 Genetic Fitness Genotype Mutagenesis Insertional Plasmids
Massively parallel sequencing of transposon-flanking regions assigned the genotype and fitness score to 91% of Escherichia coli O157:H7 mutants previously screened in cattle by signature-tagged mutagenesis (STM). The method obviates the limitations of STM and markedly extended the functional annotation of the prototype E. coli O157:H7 genome without further animal use.
