Do plasmids have protein?

Plasmids are sections of DNA that are independent of the main chromosome found in prokaryotes. It does not have any proteins other than the ones associated with replication of the plasmid.


What plasmids are and how they are used to get bacteria to synthesize a new protein that they normally do not synthesize?

Plasmids are circles of DNA. These have genes that can be transferred from one bacteria that has it to another. These genes can code for a protein that one cell normally doesn't code for. This done by a process called bacterial conjugation.


What is the rule of plasmid in biotechnology?

Plasmids in biotechnology are commonly used as vectors to introduce foreign genes into host cells for various applications such as gene cloning, protein production, and gene therapy. They are advantageous due to their ability to replicate independently of the host genome, allowing for the amplification of the inserted gene of interest. Plasmids also often contain selectable markers for screening and identifying cells that have successfully taken up the desired gene.


What best describes the introduction of a human gene into bacteria to induce the bacteria to produce a desired human protein?

Recombinant DNA technology, DNA is inserted into bacteria, it can be used to make large quantities of the desired protein., and it had its origins in two related fields. the first, microbial genetics, studies mechanisms by which microorganisms inherit traits. the second, molecular biology, specially studies how genetic information is carried in molecules of DNA and how DNA directs the synthesis of protein. Are you going to Kirkwood?


Plasmid libraries are collections of hundreds or thousands of plasmids into which genes of another organism have been inserted True or False?

Due to the fact that the prime [modern day engineered] purpose of plasmids are to transfer Dna, and considering the Rate that we are producing transgenic creatures using plasmids - we have got to go with 'True'.

What plants don't produce protein?

plants dont have the enzyme that folds the protein in the exact manner(3-D) structure so they dont produce protein


How are plasmids used in biotechnology?

A plasmid is a circular, double-stranded DNA molecule, extrachromosomal genetic material from bacteria that usually confers some advantages to the host organism such as resistance to antibiotics, productions of colicins, etc. One important characteristic is that plasmids can replicate independently of the bacterial chromosome and therefore this aspect is extremely important to use it as tool in recombinant DNA technology. Moreover, plasmids can be cut, opening their ring configuration and inserting new genetic sequences or genes to move them from one organism to another or to obtain a particular protein through their expression in the genetically modified organism.
