Abstract
Transformation of untreated vegetative cells of Bacillus cereus 569 with plasmid pC194 (1.8 megadaltons) by high-voltage electroporation resulted in a maximum of 2 x 10(-5) transformants per viable cell. Transformation of a 130-megadalton plasmid occurred at a comparable frequency. The method was simple, rapid, and yielded transformant colonies in 14 to 24 h. Transformation was obtained with unpurified total plasmid DNA.Entities:
