Bacterial Inactivation of Transforming Deoxyribonucleate [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1971 Competent and noncompetent bacteria are able to bind deoxyribonucleate (DNA). The consequence of this binding is different for the two types of bacteria. Competent bacteria are able to utilize the DNA for transformation. DNA exposed to noncompetent bacteria loses its biological activity with a coincident reduction in the double-stranded molecular ...

The bacterial transformation of abietic acid [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1968 An Alcaligenes species, which was isolated from soil, can utilize abietic acid as its sole carbon source. During growth, the bacterium transforms abietic acid into 5α-hydroxyabietic acid (I, R=OH), a product considered to be 7β-hydroxy-13-isopropyl-8ξ-podocarp-13-en-15-oic acid (II, R=H) and a compound, C20H28O3, which is believed to be an epoxy-γ ...

Citric acid/β-alanine carbon dots as a novel tool for delivery of plasmid DNA into E. coli cells
Scientific Reports, 2021 Successful delivery of plasmid DNA into the microbial cells is fundamental in recombinant DNA technology. Natural bacterial transformation is limited to only certain species due in part to the repulsive forces between negatively charged DNA and bacterial
