What is the medical significance of transformation in nature?

Transformation, as it is known in microbiology, is a the naturally occurring genetic alliteration of a cell. This is due to the incorporation of genetic material, such as exogenous DNA, being absorbed through the cell membrane. Transformation is mainly studied in the field of genetics. Some bacteria, however, also experience this natural shift, but only if they are able to absorb DNA from their environment effectively. This is a trait called 'natural transformation competence,' which not all bacteria have.
