Transformation is one of three processes by which exogenous genetic material may be introduced into a bacterial cell, the other two being conjugation (transfer of genetic material between two bacterial cells in direct contact) and transduction (injection of foreign DNA by a bacteriophage virus into the host bacterium).NA material can be transferred between different strains of bacteria, in a process that is called horizontal gene transfer. Some species upon cell death release their DNA to be taken up by other cells, however transformation works best with DNA from closely related species.
Mechanisms of non-genotoxic carcinogenesis lan C. Shaw and Huw B. Jones Until recently, the mechanism of carcinogenesis has been regarded as a two- stage phenomenon involving damage to the genetic material, which initiates the process, followed by a cell-division stimulus, which promotes the development of the tumour. However, exposure to some chemicals has been shown to result in carcinogenesis without involvement of the initiation step.
