1. Given the following restriction endonucleases and the sequences of their corresponding restriction sites, which would be LEAST useful for cutting the plasmid and the foreign DNA to be inserted? [The arrows indicate where cuts are made.] (see img) a. EcoRI b. HindIII c. HaeIII d. BamHI 2. EcoRI and HindIII are two different restriction enzymes. If the DNA from two different sources were cut with either EcoRI or HindIII, which of the cut DNA fragments would NOT join together easily so that they could be sealed with ligase? a. E. coli DNA cut with EcoRI and human DNA cut with HindIII b. E. coli DNA cut with HindIII and mouse DNA cut with HindIII c. human DNA cut with EcoRI and chimpanzee DNA cut with EcoRI d. mouse liver DNA cut with HindIII and mouse kidney DNA cut with HindIII
Bacterial Genomics
The study of the morphological, physiological, and evolutionary aspects of the bacterial genome is referred to as bacterial genomics. This subdisciplinary field aids in understanding how genes are assembled into genomes. Further, bacterial or microbial genomics has helped researchers in understanding the pathogenicity of bacteria and other microbes.
Transformation Experiment in Bacteria
In the discovery of genetic material, the experiment conducted by Frederick Griffith on Streptococcus pneumonia proved to be a stepping stone.
Plasmids and Vectors
The DNA molecule that exists in a circular shape and is smaller in size which is capable of its replication is called Plasmids. In other words, it is called extra-chromosomal plasmid DNA. Vectors are the molecule which is capable of carrying genetic material which can be transferred into another cell and further carry out replication and expression. Plasmids can act as vectors.
