Bacteriophage lambda is as one of the routinely used molecular cloning vectors, which also served as a model system for the study of bacteriophage morphogenesis, DNA replication, and gene regulation. a) With the aid of a diagram, generally narrate how a foreign gene can be inserted into a lambda insertion vector and subsequently infect an Escherichia coli cell. b) You are cloning a 7.5 kb gene into a lambda gt10 vector, utilizing a restriction site which specifically present in the vector. State the restriction site that you can use for this purpose and suggest a screening procedure to indicate successful integration of the gene into the host genome.

Question

Bacteriophage lambda is as one of the routinely used molecular cloning vectors, which also
served as a model system for the study of bacteriophage morphogenesis, DNA replication, and
gene regulation.
a) With the aid of a diagram, generally narrate how a foreign gene can be inserted into a
lambda insertion vector and subsequently infect an Escherichia coli cell.
b) You are cloning a 7.5 kb gene into a lambda gt10 vector, utilizing a restriction site which
specifically present in the vector. State the restriction site that you can use for this purpose
and suggest a screening procedure to indicate successful integration of the gene into the
host genome.
