A plasmid that contains genes that provide ampicillin resistanceand tetracycline resistance is cut with EcoRI, which cuts insidethe ampicillin resistance gene. The cut plasmid is combined withEcoRI digested genomic DNA from Drosophila in the presence ofligase and the mixture is finally used to transform E. coli.
a. Which antibiotic should be used to select for cells that haveincorporated the plasmid?
b. What will be the antibiotic resistance/sensitivity genotypefor cells that have incorporated the plasmid with no insert?
c. What will be the antibiotic resistance/sensitivity genotypefor cells that have incorporated the plasmid containing aninsert?
