The Transformation Experiment of Frederick Griffith II: Inclusion of Cellular Heredity for the Creation of Novel Microorganisms. [PDF]
Bioengineering (Basel)So far, synthetic biology approaches for the construction of artificial microorganisms have fostered the transformation of acceptor cells with genomes from donor cells. However, this strategy seems to be limited to closely related bacterial species only,

Mechanisms of Transforming DNA Uptake to the Periplasm of Bacillus subtilis
mBio, 2021 Transformation is a widely distributed mechanism of bacterial horizontal gene transfer that plays a role in the spread of antibiotic resistance and virulence genes and more generally in evolution.

A novel method for DNA delivery into bacteria using cationic copolymers [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2021 Amphiphilic copolymers have a wide variety of medical and biotechnological applications, including DNA transfection in eukaryotic cells. Still, no polymer-primed transfection of prokaryotic cells has been described.

Altering under-represented DNA sequences elevates bacterial transformation efficiency
mBio, 2023 A cornerstone of bacterial molecular biology is the ability to genetically manipulate the microbe under study. Many bacteria are difficult to manipulate genetically, a phenotype due in part to robust removal of newly acquired DNA, for example, by ...
