    摘要: The present invention provides a conditional shuttle phasmid constructed by inserting a cosmid into a non-essential region of the D29 mycobacteriophage which is capable of introducing DNA of interest into the chromosome of mycobacteria, especially M. tuberculosis complex organisms and other slow growing mycobacteria. The present invention provides a recombinant mycobacterium which expresses a DNA of interest incorporated into its chromosome by a conditional shuttle plasmid containing the DNA of interest. The present invention further provides a mycobacterial auxotrophic mutant and method of generating auxotrophic mutants. Finally, the present invention provides a method of inactivating a mycobacterial virulence gene.

    摘要: This invention relates to mycobacterial species-specific reporter mycobacteriophages (reporter mycobacteriophages), methods of producing said reporter mycobacteriophages and the use of said reporter mycobacteriophages for the rapid diagnosis of mycobacterial infection and the assessment of drug susceptibilities of mycobacterial strains in clinical samples. In particular, this invention is directed to the production and use of luciferase reporter mycobacteriophages to diagnose tuberculosis. The mycobacterial species-specific reporter mycobacteriophages comprise mycobacterial species-specific mycobacteriophages which contain reporter genes and transcriptional promoters therein. When the reporter mycobacteriophages are incubated with clinical samples which may contain the mycobacteria of interest, the gene product of the reporter genes will be expressed if the sample contains the mycobacteria of interest, thereby diagnosing mycobacterial infection.
