Abstract
Method for transforming anaerobic microorganisms. Anaerobic microorganisms are induced to form L-forms. Genetic material capable of inducing the desired phenotype is introduced into the L-forms, after which the L-forms may be caused to regenerate their cell wall. These methods are also useful for obtaining desired biological products. Additionally, shuttle vectors capable of transforming both aerobic and anaerobic microorganisms are set forth.
