The cat cassette was divided into two parts: cma (which has a homologous sequence with cmb) and cmb, each of which has no resistance separately unless the two parts are fused together. The crab sequence was integrated into one flank of a target clon- ing region in the chromosome, and a linear vector containing the cma sequence was electroporated into the cells to directly capture the target region. Based on this strategy, we successfully cloned an approximately 48 kb DNA fragment from the E. coli DH1-Z chromosome with a positive frequency of approximately 80%. Combined with double-strand breakage-stimulated homologous recombination, we applied this strategy to successfully replace the corresponding region of the E. coli DH36 chromosome and knock out four non-essential genomic regions in one step. This strategy could provide a powerful tool for the heterologous expression of microbial natural product biosynthetic pathways for genome assembly and for the functional study of DNA sequences dozens of kilobases in length.展开更多
