plasmid DNA and analysis of isolated plasmid Introduction: A plasmid is an autonomously replicating extra-chromosomal genetic element. In other words‚ this is a DNA molecule external to the bacterial chromosome that is able to replicate on its own and distribute its daughter molecules to daughter cells. You have successfully cloned a fragment of chromosomal DNA containing a tetracycline resistance cassette into a plasmid (pET11a). To this end you have (1) isolated total chromosomal DNA from your

DNA is the common name for Deoxyribonucleic acid. This is made up of nucleic acids containing deoxyribose (sugar)‚ consisting of complex molecules‚ present in the chromosomes of all plant and animal cells‚ and carrying in coded form instructions for passing on hereditary characteristics. The DNA molecule takes the shape of a double helix‚ a simple structure that resembles gently twisted ladders. The rails of the ladder are made of pairs of nitrogen-containing nucleotides‚ which are subdivisions
