Abstract excerpt
Transformation of Tetrahymena by microinjection of DNA was established 25 years ago. This rather labor-intensive technique has since been shelved, replaced by less time consuming and more efficient methods, electroporation and biolistics. Conjugative electroporation is the method of choice for introducing autonomously replicating, rDNA-based vectors into Tetrahymena. These are maintained as high-copy linear...
