Q.7 a) You are seeking to clone a gene into pEGFP-C1 (see plasmid MCS map in Q.4). Which of the following forward primers with added RE sites (in capitals) will result in your gene being in-frame with EGFP? The start codon is underlined and the RE being used is shown in brackets. (i) 5'-nnCTCGAGatggacgatgtagcacagctt-3' (Xhol) (ii) 5'-nnGGATCCatggacgatgtagcacagctt-3' (BamHI) (iii) 5'-nnGAATTCatggacgatgtagcacagctt-3' (EcoRI) b) For the primers that will result in the gene being out-of-frame with EGFP, make alterations to the primer sequences to correct the frame.
