Formation of single-stranded DNA during DNA transformation of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Oct 1998

Chaussee M S, Hill S A

Abstract excerpt

Neisseria gonorrhoeae is naturally competent for DNA transformation. In contrast to other natural prokaryotic DNA transformation systems, single-stranded donor DNA (ssDNA) has not previously been detected during transformation of N. gonorrhoeae. We have reassessed the physical nature of gonococcal transforming DNA by using a sensitive nondenaturing native blotting technique that detects ssDNA. Consistent with...
