AB - <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p> <jats:italic>Campylobacter jejuni</jats:italic> is responsible for tens of millions of cases of gastroenteritis each year. Despite its prevalence and impact on human health, the repertoire of genetic tools available for researchers to study <jats:italic>C. jejuni</jats:italic> remains limited. In order to expand upon the genetic toolkit in this species, we have engineered a system for generating conditional knockouts based on the <jats:italic>tetRA</jats:italic> tetracycline-resistance cassette. This system exhibits tight repressibility and titratability of target-gene expression and will be useful for future research on this important human pathogen. </jats:p>
