Define vector? write any two examples,
From the following which one is NOT a feature of the plasmids?
From which of the following organisms the enzyme Taq polymerase used in PCR technique is obtained?
Cloning of genes, play a very significant role in genetic engineering, helping the transfer of desirable foreign genes into different hosts. The scientists, to make this process easier and effective are creating engineered vectors in such a way that they help easy linking of foreign DNA and selection of recombinants from non-recombinants. 'pBR322' is one such engineered vectors developed by scientists. A diagram of an engineered vector pBR322 is given below:
- Name the host for this cloning vector.
- Identify 'Rop' and 'Ori' in the diagram from 'U', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y' and 'Z'. Write their functions.
- Draw the fragments that will be formed by the action of 'Z' (marked in the diagram) on the specific site of the DNA segment given below:
5' --- GTACGAATCCTGA --- 3'
3' --- CATGCTTAGGACT --- 3'
Restriction enzymes were discovered by ______.
Which of the following statements are true about cloning vectors?
- Vectors are DNA molecules that carry a foreign DNA segment.
- The replicated DNA is introduced into the host cell.
- It possesses the origin of replication (Ori).
- Vectors may be plasmid, bacteriophage, Yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs), etc.
- Vectors do not require a selectable marker to identify and eliminate non-transformants.
