High-efficiency transformation of Streptococcus lactis protoplasts by plasmid DNA.
Streptococcus lactis IL1403 protoplasts were transformed by plasmid pIL204 (5.5 kilobases), which conferred erythromycin resistance with an average efficiency of 5 X 10(6) transformants per microgram of supercoiled DNA. The procedure used and transformation efficiencies obtained were close to those described for Bacillus subtilis (G. Chang and S. N. Cohen, Mol. Gen. Genet. 168:111-115, 1979).
متن کاملTransformation of Streptococcus lactis Protoplasts by Plasmid DNA.
Polyethylene glycol-treated protoplasts prepared from Streptococcus lactis LM3302, a lactose-negative (Lac) derivative of S. lactis ML3, were transformed to lactose-fermenting ability by a transductionally shortened plasmid (pLM2103) coding for lactose utilization.
متن کاملHigh-frequency transformation of Brevibacterium lactofermentum protoplasts by plasmid DNA.
An efficient polyethylene glycol-assisted method for transformation of Brevibacterium lactofermentum protoplasts that uses plasmid vectors has been developed. Two small plasmids, pUL330 (5.2 kilobases) and pUL340 (5.8 kilobases), both containing the kanamycin resistance gene from transposon Tn5 and the replication origin of the natural plasmid pBL1 of B. lactofermentum, were selected as vectors...
متن کاملHigh-efficiency transformation of mammalian cells by plasmid DNA.
We describe a simple calcium phosphate transfection protocol and neo marker vectors that achieve highly efficient transformation of mammalian cells. In this protocol, the calcium phosphate-DNA complex is formed gradually in the medium during incubation with cells and precipitates on the cells. The crucial factors for obtaining efficient transformation are the pH (6.95) of the buffer used for th...
متن کاملPlasmid transfer via transduction from Streptococcus thermophilus to Lactococcus lactis.
Using Streptococcus thermophilus phages, plasmid transduction in Lactococcus lactis was demonstrated. The transduction frequencies were 4 orders of magnitude lower in L. lactis than in S. thermophilus. These results are the first evidence that there is phage-mediated direct transfer of DNA from S. thermophilus to L. lactis. The implications of these results for phage evolution are discussed.
