I have plasmid DNA (BFP in pET vector) that minipreped from DH10B and DH5apha. There is no colony when I transformed DNA (from the DH10B) to MG1655, and many colonies when I transformed DNA (from the DH10alpha) to MG1655. One of my committees suggested the restriction modification system might be the issue. Although my issue has resolved, but the mystery hasn't. I wonder if anyone can help clarify this?
