Connor Lauffenburger 3/17/13 pGlo Transformation Lab Report I Introduction The purpose of this experiment was to show the genetic transformation of E. coli bacteria with a plasmid that codes for Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) and contains a gene regulatory system that confers ampicillin resistance. A plasmid is a genetic structure in a cell that can replicate independently of chromosomes. In this lab‚ the Green Fluorescent Protein‚ which is typically found in the bioluminescent jellyfish Aequorea

Introduction In this week’s laboratory period students had the opportunity to perform a common procedure preformed by many if not all microbiologists known as genetic transformation. Genetic transformation is the ability to move DNA into an organism and thereby altering its genotypic and genetic makeup (2). Genetic transformation has shown to have a wide variety of uses in many scientific studies. In agriculture‚ gene coding for traits such as frost‚ pest‚ or spoilage resistance have been genetically

166-0003EDU Week 7: pGLO Transformation Introduction to Transformation In this lab you will perform a procedure known as genetic transformation. Remember that a gene is a piece of DNA which provides the instructions for making (codes for) a protein. This protein gives an organism a particular trait. Genetic transformation literally means change caused by genes‚ and involves the insertion of a gene into an organism in order to change the organism’s trait. Genetic transformation is used in many areas

Cell Transformation Cell transformation is when a cell takes in DNA from the outside of the cell. It then becomes a component of the cell’s DNA. There are three different ways in transforming the cells. There is transforming bacteria‚ transforming plant cells‚ and transforming animal cells. The purpose of cell transformation is to introduce a foreign plasmid in order to make large quantities of it. In transforming bacteria‚ a foreign DNA is first joined to a small circular DNA molecule known
