On the dose response in B. subtilis transfection: involvement of aggregates in phi 29 transfection.
Transfection with phi 29 DNA is predominantly caused by multimolecular, protease-sensitive aggregates of DNA. A minority of transfecting DNA molecules having properties of unit-length phi 29 genome molecules show a quadratic dose response in transfection.
