Abstract
The properties of a collection of transposon Tn5 derivatives that generate reporter gene fusions and internal protein tags are summarized. Procedures utilizing several of the transposons for generating genes activated by Cre-loxP recombination and for creating large sequence-defined mutant libraries are described in detail.
