Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis ATCC 15697 has emerged as a model for infant gut-associated bifidobacterial strains. Here we present a genetic system for B. longum subsp. infantis ATCC 15697 using its own DNA restriction-modification systems and create a fucose permease deletion mutant lacking the ability to use free fucose as a carbon source.
