Abstract
In this study, we established a Cre/loxP mutant recombination system (Cre/lox71-66 system) for markerless gene deletion to facilitate our follow-up rational genetic engineering to the strain Bacillus pumilus W3. This modified method uses two mutant loxP sites, which after recombination creates a double-mutant loxP site that is poorly recognized by Cre recombinase, facilitating multiple gene deletions in a single genetic background. Two selected genes, cotA and sigF, were continuously knocked out and verified at different levels using this method. This method is simple and efficient and can be easily implemented for multiple gene deletions in B. pumilus.
