UNLABELLED: Mycoplasmas have been widely investigated for their pathogenicity, as well as for genomics and synthetic biology. Conventionally, transformation of mycoplasmas was not highly efficient, and due to the low transformation efficiency, large amounts of DNA and recipient cells were required for that purpose. Here, we report a robust and highly efficient transformation method for the minimal cell JCVI-syn3B, which was created through streamlining the genome of IMPORTANCE: Mycoplasmas are parasitic and pathogenic bacteria for many animals. They are also useful bacteria to understand the cellular process of life and for bioengineering because of their simple metabolism, small genomes, and cultivability. Genetic manipulation is crucial for these purposes, but transformation efficiency in mycoplasmas is typically quite low. Here, we report a highly efficient transformation method for the minimal genome mycoplasma JCVI-syn3B. Using this method, transformants can be obtained with only 10 ng of plasmid DNA, which is around one-thousandth of the amount required for traditional mycoplasma transformations. Moreover, a convenient method using frozen stocks of transformation-ready cells was established. These improved methods play a crucial role in further studies using minimal cells.
