    1. What we will learn today . . . Bacteria contain circular DNA pieces called plasmids Bacteria can take in plasmids from other bacteria Bacteria can take in plasmids that contain genes from other sources

    2. Bacterial Transformation Using the pGLO gene A Study of Gene Expression

    3. Background and Review A gene is a piece of DNA that contains the instructions for making a particular protein; this protein gives an organism a certain trait Some genes can be inserted into organisms to change their traits; this is called . . . TRANSFORMATION

    4. Anatomy of a Bacteria Cell Bacteria contain bits of circular DNA called plasmids Bacteria can exchange plasmids freely with one another and with other sources
