plasmid is the type of the cloning vector.
other cloning vectors includes cosmids, bacteriophage, phagemids, artifiical chromosomes.
clonong vectors are the carriers of certain traits to be inserted in non coding regions of the DNA.
yes a expresssion vector can be a plasmid
The original plasmid defined as a DNA molecule that can carry foreign DNA into a host cell and replicate there.
Puc18, i believe, is both. It is a plasmid vector. Plasmid is a more descriptive as it is a type of vector. Similarly to how a cheetah is both a mammal and an animal.
A plasmid is a double stranded cirucular DNA, used as a vector in cloning. A gene of interest can be ligated into the this to form a chimeric DNA or rDNA. This can be transformed to a bacteria for propagation of the clones (you can amplify them by these transformed bacteria).
Endoplasmic reticulum.
"Vector" is an agent that can carry a DNA fragment into a host cell. If it is used for reproducing the DNA fragment, it is called a "cloning vector". If it is used for expressing certain gene in the DNA fragment, it is called an "expression vector".Commonly used vectors include plasmid, Lambda phage, cosmid and yeast artificial chromosome (YAC).
i have no idea wat plasmid,cloning ,and vector means so haha 2 u
functions as a vector
Gene Cloning is used to clone a gene of interest in a vector called plasmid. The chimeric DNA or rDNA formed by cloning is stable and can be used to propagate and sequence the DNA. producing vector containing inulin gene is an example.
