Abstract

Employs a mobilizable suicide vector, pSUP5011, to introduce Tn5-mob in a facultative sulfur lithotrophic bacterium, KCT001, to generate mutants defective in sulfux oxidation. Inability of the mutants to oxidize thiosulfate while grown mixotrophically in the presence of thiosulfate and succinate; Inability to oxidize other sulfur compounds.
