Message definition (Bacillus subtilis)
While the natural competent state is common within laboratory ''B. subtilis'' and field isolates, some industrially relevant strains, e.g. ''B. subtilis'' (natto), are reluctant to DNA uptake due to the presence of restriction modification systems that degrade exogenous DNA. ''B. subtilis'' (natto) mutants, which are defective in a type I restriction modification system endonuclease, are able to act as recipients of conjugative plasmids in mating experiments, paving the way for further genetic engineering of this particular ''B. subtilis'' strain.
