that some principle of transformation had taken place to cause this occurrence. Fifteen years later Avery, McCloud, and McCarty discovered the natural process by which transformation occurs. They separated the genetic material from the virulent form of streptococcus and transformed the nonvirulent strain into a 100% virulent
genome, genetic transformation has taken place, bacterial transformation is a form of genetic transformation and also the easiest to create within a lab due to the single cell nature of the bacteria used. For this particular experiment pGLO plasmid will be incorporated into E. coli bacteria which will give it genes that code GFP and beta-lactamase proteins into the modified genome of the bacteria. For the experiment two plates were mixed with and without the pGLO plasmid; one was the pGLO, LB nutrient
The purpose of this experiment is to explore the understanding of bacterial transformation of plasmid DNA. Bacterial transformation is the technique of genetic transformation. In this lab the pGLO plasmid is pledged into E.Coli bacteria and adds genes encoded for GFP and beta-lactamase to transformed bacteria. To get the results of the experiment, the bacteria processed with plasmid were grown on two plates , one of which containing LB nutrient broth and ampicillin and another plate containing LB
Bacterial Transformation Alyssa Krajnik Lab TA: Qi Deng Lab Time: Thursday 4:30 Report Submitted: 09 APR 2015 Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to observe the process of transferring genes from one organism to another using the aid of a plasmid. However, the results obtained from the experiment illustrated that the data collected was not reliable. The results indicated that not enough bacteria were transferred to the agar plates. Because of the errors that occurred in the experiment
