In the best case scenario, each bacteria cell should have several copies of the plasmid.

Another study investigated the formation of Okazaki fragments in wild-type bacteria cells.

The breakdown of pectin from enzymic action would make the bacteria cells more susceptible to heat.

It turned out that adding almost any gene to bacteria cells only weakened them.

Latching onto the walls of a bacteria cell, the phage injects it with the genetic material stored in its very own head.

The function of the slime layer is to protect the bacteria cells from environmental dangers such as antibiotics and desiccation.

The desired molecule can be produced in bacteria cells.

These are part of bacteria cells which are naturally present in food.

They often consist of dead bacteria cells, but sometimes the cells retain poisons that can cause severe illness and even death.

Transformation of bacteria, plant cells and animal cells has important research and commercial functions.
