Research Summary
Competent cells are bacterial cells that have been treated to alter their cell membrane, making them capable of taking up foreign DNA more efficiently through a process called transformation. These cells are widely used in molecular biology and genetic engineering techniques, such as cloning, gene expression, and gene editing. By introducing exogenous DNA into competent cells, researchers can modify or express specific genes within the bacterial host. Competent cells are available in various strains and types, each optimized for different applications. After transformation, the introduced DNA can be stably integrated into the bacterial genome or maintained as an independent plasmid, enabling researchers to study gene function, produce proteins of interest, or engineer new genetic constructs. The efficiency of transformation and the competency of the cells are critical factors in the success of various molecular biology experiments.
