Zusammenfassung:
Although Sulfolobus species are among the best studied archaeal micro-organisms, the development and
availability of genetic tools has lagged behind. In the present paper, we discuss the latest progress in
understanding recombination events of exogenous DNA into the chromosomes of Sulfolobus solfataricus
and Sulfolobus acidocaldarius and their application in the construction of targeted-deletion mutant strains.
