Transformation Lab Report Introduction Transformation is the transfers of virulence from one cell to another‚ through the transferring of genetic material. It was originally postulated in 1928 through the works of Federick Griffith‚ a British microbiologist. Griffith observed that the mutant form‚ non-virulent form‚ of the bacteria Streptococcus Pnumoniae could be transformed into the normal‚ virulent form‚ when injected into mice along with heat killed normal forms.

As the forces of globalisation began to increase‚ barriers of trade reduced significantly causing firms to shift their focus on improving processes internally in order to sustain operations and become profitable.

In this lab‚ we performed a genetic transformation through the process of gene transfer. Gene transfer involves the insertion of a gene into an organism. The gene to be inserted is usually contained in a plasmid‚ which is relatively small‚ circular non-chromosomal DNA molecule typically found in bacteria. Once the plasmid containing the gene is inserted into the organism‚ it is absorbed into the organism’s own genetic code. After this occurs‚ the newly introduced gene begins coding for proteins‚

Transformation in bacteria is the genotype alteration by the uptake of naked‚ foreign DNA from the environment. This concept of transformation was first discovered when Fred Griffith an experiment using mice and strains of pneumonia. Griffith concluded that a “principle” was transferred from heat-killed S strains to the R strains‚ which transformed them into deadly S strains. Oswald Avery later determined‚ through a series of experiments‚ that DNA was the “principle” that caused the R stains to become
