Using the plasmid map of pBCH2.0 provided above, predict how many DNA fragments would be formed if this plasmid was digested with restriction enzyme BamHI. You utilised two plasmids in this practical, pOTC and pOTC-A. Plasmidsare often represented using plasmid maps like the one below. This mapshows the positions of recognition sites for a number of restrictionenzymes (ECORV, Pstl, Xbal etc).PstlEcoRV(6789),(623)Хbal1282)EcoRI (1538)BamHI (1545)Kpnl (1613)Hindll (1653)(1691)Pvull(6103)PBCH2.0Sall(7693 bp)Pstl(2401)BstlХbal(4469)(3188)

A plasmid contains genes for ampicillin resistance and chloramphenicol resistance and has single sites for Hind III and Eco RI. When genes are inserted into the Eco RI site, transformants are resistant only to ampicillin. In which region is the site for EcoRI located? Group of answer choices within the chloramphenicol gene between the ampicillin and chloramphenicol genes can't be determined within the ampicillin gene

To determine if the antibiotic resistance in MH1 was carried on a plasmid, you first isolate the plasmid in MH1 using the plasmid DNA purification technique. Then, you transform bacteria that are not resistant to penicillin/ampicillin with the plasmid isolated from MH1. For the bacterial transformation experiment, you set up the three controls listed below. Match each control with its appropriate purpose (i.e. what it is controlling for) Please note: Transformed bacteria are bacteria that received the plasmid from MH1 and untransformed bacteria are bacteria that did not receive a plasmid. Testing to ensure that the bacteria used in the transformation experiment are viable (i.e. can grow on LB media) (Choose) [ Choose ) after transformation. Untransformed bacteria plated on LB only plate Testing to ensure that the bacteria used in the transformation experiment are viable (ie. can grow on LB media) before transformation.

A plasmid has been modified such that it carries the gene for beta-galactosidase (lacZ) under the control of the lac promoter. Between the lac promoter and the lacZ gene is an empty multiple cloning site (MSC). This plasmid also carries ampicillin resistance. E. coli are transformed with this plasmid, and grown on nutrient agar containing ampicillin, IPTG, and the lactose analogue Xgal for 18 hours. Following incubation, the plates are examined. What will be the likely colour of the bacteria colonies?
Explain why digestion with EcoRI and Hindlll might give more than one insert fragment with some of the recombinant plasmids
