Abstract

The capacity of transposable elements to insert into the genomes has been harnessed during the past decades to various in vitro and in vivo applications. This chapter describes in detail the general protocols and principles applicable for the Mu in vitro transposition reaction as well as the assembly of DNA transposition complexes that can be electroporated into bacterial cells to accomplish efficient gene delivery. These techniques with their modifications potentiate various gene and genome modification applications, which are discussed briefly here, and the reader is referred to the original publications for further details.
