pubmed:abstractText
Plasmid vectors have been constructed for Streptococcus mutans and Bacillus subtilis that make possible rapid replacement of the widely used reporter gene lacZ (encoding beta-galactosidase) with either gfp (encoding green fluorescent protein) or gusA (encoding beta-glucuronidase). The lacZ-->gfp replacement vectors greatly facilitate the analysis of the spatial location of gene expression in biofilms of S. mutans and in sporulating B. subtilis. The lacZ-->gusA replacement vectors facilitate the comparison of two promoters within the same organism. A vector is also described that enables gusA to be replaced with gfp in B. subtilis.
