What is the most logical sequence of steps for splicing foreign DNA into a plasmid and inserting the plasmis into a bacterium?

I. Transform bacteria with recombinant DNA molecule II. Cut the plasmid DNA using restriction enzymes III. Extract plasmid DNA from bacterial cells IV. Hydrogen-bond the plasmid DNA to nonplasmid DNA fragments V. Use ligase to seal plasmid DNA to nonplasmid DNA


What tool to use when cutting plasmid?

a Restriction Enzyme


What would be the advantages of inserting into a plasmid gene with a highly visible phenotype?

Inserting a plasmid gene into the organism gives us three situation that one is the foreign cell may not pick up the plasmid the second chance is it is picked up may not expressed and in the third case it is expressed and therefore you can have the gene of interest. This is the one main advantage of studying the gene of interest by inserting a plasmid gene.

What tool will researcher use to cut plasmid?

Which enzyme would cut the plasmid without disrupting the function of?

Perhaps you mean a restriction enzyme, but not disrupting the function of whatever is not too clear. I think if you cut a plasmid with any restriction enzyme I am familiar with the function of that plasmid would be disrupted.

Why must you use an enzyme that will not cut anywhere within the gene that you are inserting into a plasmid?

If you are trying to take a gene from a DNA strand and put insert it into a plasmid, you wouldn't want a restriction enzyme to cut that gene up, or else it would be pretty useless. In other words, you need an enzyme or two that cuts outside that gene so that it can be functional after it's inserted into a plasmid. After your gene of interest is inserted into a plasmid, the plasmid can be put back into a bacterium, then you could genetically engineer plants with it or let the bacterium reproduce and produce many copies of a protein that you had wanted to make in the first place.


What would happen if you cut both the jellyfish glo gene and puc18 plasmid with the ecor1 restriction enzyme?

If there is a EcoR1 site in either the middle of the Glo gene, or in the middle of the selectable marker site in the plasmid, it would likely disable either Glo, or the plasmid.


Are plasmid vectors helpful?

Plasmid vectors are an invaluable genetic engineering tool for inserting recombinant DNA sequences into different organisms or cells in culture.Plasmids are essentially circular DNA constructs composed of some essential elements like:An origin of replicationA multiple cloning site which consists of restriction sites where the recombinant DNA can be insertedMarker genes (like antibiotic resistance)reporter genes to confirm a successful transformation
