1.2 Conjugation
Bacterial Conjugation -transmission of genetic information from a donor bacterium to a recipient cell through cell-to-cell contact.

1.3 Transformation
Introduction of an exogenous DNA into a cell, causing the cell to acquire a new phenotype.
Transformation
Genetic recombination in which a DNA fragment from a dead, degraded bacterium enters a competent recipient bacterium and it is exchanged for a piece of the recipient's DNA. Involves 4 steps
2. A fragment of DNA from the dead donor bacterium binds to DNA binding proteins on the cell wall of a competent, living recipient bacterium
3. The Rec A protein promotes genetic exchange between a fragment of the donor's DNA and the recipient's DNA
4. Exchange is complete
Transformation
DNA
1.4 Transduction
-transfer of DNA fragments from one bacterium to another bacterium by a bacteriophage.
Structure of T4 bacteriophage
Transduction
Seven steps in Generalised Transduction 1. A lytic bacteriophage adsorbs to a susceptible bacterium. 2. The bacteriophage genome enters the bacterium. The genome directs the bacterium's metabolic machinery to manufacture bacteriophage components and enzymes 3. Occasionally, a bacteriophage head or capsid assembles around a fragment of donor bacterium's nucleoid or around a plasmid instead of a phage genome by mistake.
5. The bacteriophage carrying the donor bacterium's DNA adsorbs to a recipient bacterium
7. The donor bacterium's DNA is exchanged for some of the recipient's DNA.

1.6 Transposition
the movement of specific pieces of DNA in the genome. resembles site-specific recombination being catalyzed by special enzymes.
IS Transposition
insertion sequences (IS) including: inverted repeats (IR) 9~41bp transposase gene repeated sequences 4~12bp
Transposase gene
types of IS transposition
duplicative transposition Conservative transposition
