Lactobacillus protoplast transformation

A method for the transformation of Lactobacillus protoplasts by plasmid DNA is reported. The procedure involves polyethylene glycol treatment of protoplasts to induce DNA uptake. A transformation efficiency ranging from 5 to 1000 transformants per microgram of DNA is achieved; the efficiency of prot...

Zusammenfassung:A method for the transformation of Lactobacillus protoplasts by plasmid DNA is reported. The procedure involves polyethylene glycol treatment of protoplasts to induce DNA uptake. A transformation efficiency ranging from 5 to 1000 transformants per microgram of DNA is achieved; the efficiency of protoplast regeneration ranged from 10 to 20%.
