| transformation |
A process in which exogenous DNA is taken up by a (recipient) cell or protoplast, in which it may be incorporated into the chromosome (or, eg, into a plasmid) by homologous recombination or converted into an autonomous replicon. The DNA (transforming or donor DNA) may be a fragment of chromosomal DNA from a related strain, a plasmid, or a viral genome. (16)

Neoplastic transformation is the conversion of normal cells into tumour cells (see below). Frequently this is the result of a genetic change (mutagenesis) and the same term is used to describe the genetic modification of bacteria for use in biotechnology. See epigenetic changes, genetic toxicology, genotoxic, mutation, mutagenesis, tumour.
