“…The apparent association of DNA with mesosomes has also been reported to occur during the incorporation oftransforming DNA into bacterial cells (303,319,320,338). It has been postulated that this association of donor DNA with specific "nuclear" mesosomes (in contrast to "plasma membrane mesosomes") is involved in the processing of the donor DNA into the bacterial genome (338).…”

And is it not true that the comparatively simple act of looking through a microscope presents the eye with pictures that we should all declare fantastic and far-fetched if we happened upon them by chance. .. (Schmidt, 270) Meditation over an electron micrograph of a bacterial cell wall or the endoplasmic reticulum ofa liver cell brings conviction that the position ofsynthesis within the cell must be as important as the chemical synthesis itself.

“…The role of mesosomes as specialized membrane regions through which the transforming DNA enters the cell has been studied by Tichy and Landman (303). They found that, after removal of walls with lysozyme, protoplasts ofB.…”

“…This factor has been purified and shown to possess both cell wall-lytic and DNase activity, although the exact nature of the former has not yet been determined (7). The observations that a low concentration of lysozyme stimulates transformation (315) and that the binding of DNA may activate autolysin (301) support the concept of a role for cell wall-lytic enzymes in transformation.…”

“…The isolation and purification of a substance inducing competence of pneumococcal cells was the most important result obtained [96]. The transformation and transfection of Bacillus subtilis cells [186,198,201,202] as well as the transduction of Salmonella typhimurium [72-75] were also studied.…”

This review summarizes the main results obtained in the fields of general and molecular microbiology and microbial genetics at the Institute of Microbiology of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic (AS CR) [formerly Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences (CAS)] over more than 50 years. Contribution of the founder of the Institute, academician Ivan Málek, to the introduction of these topics into the scientific program of the Institute of Microbiology and to further development of these studies is also included.
