Use of Bacteriophage lambda  Recombination Functions To Promote Gene Replacement in Escherichia coli

Kenan C. Murphy*

Department of Molecular Genetics and Microbiology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester, Massachusetts 01655

Received 1 October 1997/Accepted 6 February 1998

Replacement of Escherichia coli's RecBCD function with phage lambda 's Red function generates a strain whose chromosome recombines with short linear DNA fragments at a greatly elevated rate. The rate is at least 70-fold higher than that exhibited by a recBC sbcBC or recD strain. The value of the system is highlighted by gene replacement with a PCR-generated DNA fragment. The Delta recBCD::Plac-red kan replacement allele can be P1 transduced to other E. coli strains, making the hyper-Rec phenotype easily transferable.
