Abstract
Species of the Burkholderia cepacia complex (Bcc) have great biotechnological potential but are also opportunistic pathogens. Genetic manipulation of Bcc species is necessary to understand gene-to-function links. However, limited genetic tools are available to manipulate Bcc, hindering our understanding of their pathogenic traits and their potential in biotechnological applications. We developed a genetic tool based on CRISPR-associated transposase to increase the genetic tools available for Bcc species. The genetic tool we developed in this study can be used for loss and gain of function in Bcc species. The significance of our work is in expanding currently available tools to manipulate Bcc.
