प्रश्न

A recombinant DNA molecule was created by ligating a gene to a plasmid vector. By mistake, an exonuclease was added to the tube containing the recombinant DNA. How does this affect the next step in the experiment i.e. bacterial transformation?

उत्तर

When a DNA molecule is created by ligating a gene to a plasmid vector, It becomes a circular DNA which is ready to replicate in host organism. After this stage, addition of exonuclease is not going to affect the process because the DNA does not have a free end and hence enzyme exonuclease will not get a substrate to show its action. So, in this experiment; bacterial transformation is not going to be disturbed.
