Cloning of plasmid pUC19 in E.coli bacteria Introduction One aspect of the DNA cloning experiments that is carefully considered is the selection of cloning vectors. A variety of vectors have been created‚ each being suitable for a particular use. One common vector used in laboratories is a plasmid called pUC19. It is 2686 base pairs long and possesses an origin of replication which allows the production of over 100 copies in a competent E.coli cell. It possesses a multiple cloning site (MCS)

encoded into extra-chromosomal plasmids‚ such activity is typically absent in Eukaryotic cells. 3. The own way DNA is present in each type of cell has different characteristics: Prokaryotes have small‚ efficient amounts of DNA‚ while Eukaryotes contain large and repetitive amounts of the latter. Choose two internal structures of prokaryotic cells and three from eukaryotic cells and describe their function in your own words.

experiment‚ a plasmid with a gene that has resistance to the antibiotic ampicillin and has lacZ is used to transfer the resistance into E. coli bacteria in red colonies. This same technique is used to give diabetics their insulin‚ and to give dwarfs growth hormones. The point of this lab is to give the groups an idea how DNA can be transformed by a bacteria to improve the lives of people. Transformation happened when a gene is transferred from one bacterium to another one on a plasmid. E. coli is the

cloning is the transfer of a DNA fragment of interest from one organism to a self-replicating genetic material such as a bacterial plasmid. A gene is cloned by removing the DNA fragment of interest from the chromosome‚ by using restriction enzymes and then placing it into a plasmid‚ which was cut by the same restriction enzymes. Once the DNA fragment is attached with the plasmid it is called “recombinant DNA”‚ it can now be reproduced with the host cell. This isn’t fairly new technology‚ it’s been around

Know any clinical significance each structure might have and if it is a target for antibiotics. (On separate sheet) 2. Know the differences between Gram positive and Gram negative cell walls. * Gram positive cell wall * In addition to many layers of peptidoglycan‚ the cell wall of Gram-positive bacterials cells also contain: * Teichoic

The purpose of module E is to learn several DNA techniques in the lab including DNA purification with solubility and absorption‚ plasmid transfection of E.coli‚ colony screening by PCR and quantitative PCR. First part of the experiment E1 show the purification method of DNA through solubility. E. coli lysate mixed organic solvents to purify the DNA present in solution. First‚ the lysate was mixed with phenol/chloroform‚ then vortexed‚ and centrifuged. We extracted the aqueous layer and combined

given recognition site will occur. That’s why human chromosomal DNA (contains three billion base pairs) has many more recognition sites than a plasmid DNA. (plasmid DNA have only several thousand base pairs. Large DNA is extremely difficult to isolate intact‚ therefore during handling it is randomly sheared to fragments in the range between 50‚000-100‚000. Plasmids and several viral DNAs‚ are circular molecules. If a circular DNA contains one recognition site for one restriction enzyme‚ than it will open

Chapter 18 The Genetics of Viruses and Bacteria Lecture Outline Overview: Microbial Model Systems Viruses and bacteria are the simplest biological systems—microbial models in which scientists find life’s fundamental molecular mechanisms in their most basic‚ accessible forms. Molecular biology was born in the laboratories of microbiologists studying viruses and bacteria. Microbes such as E. coli and its viruses are called model systems because of their use in studies that reveal broad biological
