Document Summary

Biol 1000 section 15. 1 dna cloning. Clone: a line of genetically identical cells or individuals derived from a single ancestor. Dna cloning: method for producing many copies of a piece of dna (gene of interest) Cloned genes are used in basic research to find out about their biological functions. Overview of cloning dna fragments in a bacterial plasmid. Promoter lies before mcs because transcription wont start therefore no mrna therefore not expression in protein. Marker lets you know which ones contain the recombinant dna. Clone, create recombinant dna, transform, screen: take gene of interest, put into plasmid. Make it receptive to dna by cutting plasmid open. Enzymes called restriction enzymes, they specifically cut pieces dna. One restriction site for one restriction enzyme. Mcs; 20-30 different ones in just one site. sticky end; region of uncomplimented bases just hanging out there cut gene of interest with same restriction enzymes.

Assume that you are trying to insert a gene into a plasmid andsomeone gives you a DNA sample cut with restriction enzyme X. Thegene you wish to insert from the given sample has sites on bothends for cutting by restriction enzyme Y. You have a plasmid with asingle site for Y, but not for X. Your strategy should be to

cut the plasmid withrestriction enzyme X and insert the fragments cut with Y into theplasmid.

cut the plasmid with enzyme Xand then insert the gene into the plasmid.

cut the DNA again withrestriction enzyme Y and insert these fragments into the plasmidcut with the same enzyme.

cut the plasmid twice withrestriction enzyme Y and ligate the two fragments onto the ends ofthe human DNA fragments cut with restriction enzyme X.

insert the fragments cut withX directly into the plasmid without cutting the plasmid.
