Heat Shock for Plasmid DNA Uptake
Description
Bacterial transformation lets cells take up foreign DNA from their surroundings. Some bacteria can do this naturally. In molecular biology, researchers recreate the process in the lab by making pores in the bacterial cell membrane.
Cells that can take up DNA from the environment are called compet...
