Mapping the brkA Promoter Region on pDO6935 in Escherichia coli Using pLISA, A Novel Promoterless GFP Reporter Plasmid

Bordetella resistance to killing A (brkA) is a serum resistance gene encoding an autotransporter native to Bordetella pertussis, the causative agent of whooping cough (1). Using the expression construct pDO6935, previous studies have demonstrated brkA expression in Escherichia co...
