Abstract:
To construct gene knock-out mutant of a two-component signal transduction system named 2148hk/rr in Streptococcus suis type 2 virulent strain 05ZYH33.Recombinant gene knock-out vector was constructed consisting of Spc~r cassette with flanking homology regions to the target genes,the isogenic 2148hk/rr-deficient mutant was screened by allelic replacement.PCR analysis and Southern hybridization confirmed that the coding genes of 2148hk/rr were replaced completely by spc~r cassette.Conclusion The mutant of 05ZYH33 2148hk/rr system was successfully constructed,which laid the foundation for farther research on the role of this two-component signal transduction system during infection.
