Efficiency of Transformation

Featured Replies

I got one question to ask: For two plasmids of the same size but one is linear and one is supercoil, which one will have a greater efficiency in the transformation into the competent cells and why?

 

I think the linear should be more efficient because its less complex but I have found some websites that says that supercoiled one is more efficient so I'm not sure which is correct, I hope someone can give me your answer to this question thanks!
