Abstract
Competent cells of Bacillus subtilis incorporate degradation products from transfecting DNA into their chromosomal DNA. The sensitivity of this incorporation to inhibitors of bacterial DNA synthesis [phage infection or 6-(p-hydroxyphenylazo)-uracil] suggests that semiconservative DNA synthesis can occur in competent cells.Entities:
