Abstract:
Methods of assessing expression of a PrfA mediated expression construct in a Listerial host cell are provided. Aspects of the methods include maintaining a Listerial host cell that includes a PrfA mediated expression construct in a defined medium containing a reducing agent and evaluating expression of a product from the expression construct to assess expression of the PrfA mediated expression construct. Also provided are methods of producing and using a Listerial vaccine, as well as defined media for use in such methods.
