The plasmid codes for three elements, lacZ, ApR and ori. What are these three
things?
Which restriction enzyme cut sites would you use to clone your blue pigment gene
into pUC19 and why?
You digest the plasmid and your blue pigment gene with the restriction enzymes
chosen in step b. Explain how the two fragments will stick together, and explain
how you will stich the phosphate backbone back up.
