Name one advantage of using a yeast strain with auxotrophies for several genes (i.e. his3, leu2 and ura3). b.)After successful CRIPSR editing, the yeast can later be “cured” of the recombinant CRISPR plasmid – that is, the plasmid is lost but the CRISPR edit is stably inherited. Write the new genotype of the yeast based on ADE6 gene.

1. Below is an illustration of two plasmids: the incomplete pKAN-R which contains the gene of interest (rfp), and the good plasmid vector pARA which contains the ampR gene for ampicillin resistance, the araC activator gene and the ori region. Based on this, how are you going assemble to create the desired recombinant plasmid containing all the necessary components? (Keywords: Identify correct restriction enzymes to use to create specific sticky end sequences that will only assemble with the final vector in one orientation)

Briefly explain why the cut sites on the pMBBS plasmid in each Restriction Enzymes (EcoRI, BamHI, and XhoI) just 1 each 3. Briefly explain what led to the 5 fragments formed which linked to the 500bp, 1000bp, 1500bp, 2000bp, 2500bp sizes
With the use of well-illustrated diagrams, reconstruct the entire cloning process by explaining different stages of the cloning process that involves the following: d. Screening/selection of hosts containing the intended recombinant plasmid. For this stage(d), discuss the importance of a second marker that can be used for screening of genomic DNA for colonies containing the pka-1 under the principle of insertional inactivation. This should be properly explained using all the attributes of the plasmid described above.

Please DESCRIBE, in outline form, the method you will use to select for bacterial cells that have taken up the pL311 plasmid, and to screen those cells for the presence of plasmids that are likely to contain a cloned gene. Be sure to mention the specific media you will use. In addition, please explain the rationale behind this specific selection and screening procedure. (Remember that you have available the following types of media: (i) media containing neither kanamycin nor X-gal, (ii) media containing BOTH kanamycin and X-gal, (iii) media containing tetracycline, and (iv) media containing ampicillin.
) Clearly and neatly diagram an image of the agarose gel indicating the fragments that would be generated from PCR of genomic DNA templates derived from an untransformed porcine cell line, a cell line in which there had been a monoallelic targeting event, and a cell line in which there had been a biallelic targeting event when using the primer pair H/B, if the PCR product(s) were digested with SmaI prior to electrophoresis. Illustrate the fragments and their sizes that would have been visualized on the gel. Note - now there has been digestion of the PCR product(s) with SmaI prior to electrophoresis
