You are performing an experiment using CRISPR-cas9 to genetically modify the LacZ gene of a culture of E. coli. After you run the experiment, you decide to use gel electrophoresis to genotype the different bacterial cultures to determine if the gene editing was successful.

In relation to the use of restriction enzymes in recombinant DNA technology, answer the following: You have accidentally torn the labels off two tubes (tube A and tube B), each containing a different plasmid, now you do not know which plasmid is in which tube. Fortunately, you have restriction maps for both plasmids, shown in Figure below. You have the opportunity to test just one sample from one of your tubes. By utilizing agarose gel electrophoresis technique, which restriction enzyme OR combination of restriction enzymes would you use in this experiment to determine which plasmid is found in which tube?. (Hint: if you use Hind III restriction enzyme you are going to get ONE single fragment with a molecular size of → 0.5+0.3+0.2+0.4+1+1 = 3.4 kb).
