Transfección de ADN: introducción en una célula en cultivo [...] permeable al ADN, de moléculas [...] de ADN extrañas (heterólogas) insertadas en un vector. [...] La transformación requiere la integración del ADN exógeno en el cromosoma bacteriano mientras que la transfección usualmente no la requiere. El ADN extraño se asocia con el del cromosoma del huésped y se expresa como un fenotipo identificable. 3, record 2, Spanish, - ADN%20ex%C3%B3geno
