Glow-in-the-Dark Transformation Kit
Bacteria that produce light are very common in the ocean. One luminescent bacterium is Vibrio fischeri. The group of genes involved in the production of light (also known as the lux genes) has been removed from V. fischeri and placed in a plasmid, pVIB. Bacterial transformation is used to transfer the pVIB plasmid into E. coli. After E. coli takes up the plasmid, it glows in the dark. The transformed colonies are also ampicillin resistant.
