transduction

Examples of transduction in the following topics:

• Bacterial Transduction

  • Transduction is the process by which DNA is transferred from one bacterium to another by a virus.
  • Transduction is the process by which DNA is transferred from one bacterium to another by a virus .
  • Transduction happens through either the lytic cycle or the lysogenic cycle.
  • Transduction is a method for transferring genetic material.
  • Transduction is the process by which DNA is transferred from one bacterium to another by a virus.

• Putting Foreign DNA into Cells

  • ., transformation, transduction, transfection, and electroporation).
  • The methods used to get DNA into cells are varied, and the name applied to this step in the molecular cloning process will often depend upon the experimental method that is chosen (e.g., transformation, transduction, transfection, electroporation).
  • In contrast, transduction involves the packaging of DNA into virus-derived particles, and using these virus-like particles to introduce the encapsulated DNA into the cell through a process resembling viral infection.
  • Although electroporation and transduction are highly specialized methods, they may be the most efficient methods to move DNA into cells.

• Bacteriophage Lambda as a Cloning Vector

  • Lambda phage has been of major importance in the study of specialized transduction.
  • Specialized transduction is the process by which a restricted set of bacterial genes are transferred to another bacterium .
  • Specialized transduction occurs when the prophage excises imprecisely from the chromosome so that bacterial genes lying adjacent to the prophage are included in the excised DNA.
  • Transduction is the process by which DNA is transferred from one bacterium to another by a virus.It also refers to the process whereby foreign DNA is introduced into another cell via a viral vector.

• Two-Component Regulatory Systems

  • Signal transduction occurs through the transfer of phosphoryl groups from adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to a specific histidine residue in the histidine kinases (HK).
  • Two-component signal transduction systems enable bacteria to sense, respond and adapt to a wide range of environments, stressors and growth conditions.
  • Signal transducing histidine kinases are the key elements in two-component signal transduction systems.

• Chemotaxis

  • This mechanism of signal transduction is called a two-component system and is a common form of signal transduction in bacteria.

• Planctomycetes

  • One such example is a gene sequence (in Gemmata obscuriglobus) that was found to have significant homology to the integrin alpha-V, a protein that is important in transmembrane signal transduction in eukaryotes.

• Pathogenicity Islands

  • Cryptic mobility genes may also be present, indicating the provenance as transduction.

• Pathogenicity Islands and Virulence Factors

  • Cryptic mobility genes may also be present, indicating the provenance as transduction.

• Gene Transfer in Archaea

  • In bacteria the natural ways in which this occurs is through either bacterial conjugation or viral transfer, also known as transduction.
  • Transduction occurs when a virus "picks up" some DNA from its host and when infecting a new host, moves that genetic material to the new host.

• Adherence

  • Also, they induce activation of several signal transduction cascades, including activation of PI-3 kinase.
