Efficient and Scalable Precision Genome Editing in Staphylococcus aureus through Conditional Recombineering and CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Counterselection

Staphylococcus aureus is an important human pathogen, but studies of the organism have suffered from the lack of a robust tool set for its genetic and genomic manipulation. Here we report the development of a system for the facile and high-throughput genomic engineering of S. aureus using single-str...
