How would you expect your results to change if the enzyme did not have time to cut all of the sites? (Hint, remember that there are many pieces of the lambda DNA in the tube – draw yourself a simplified model where there are four restriction sites, and imagine what would happen if the enzyme only cut at one, two, three or all four, randomly, each time).
How would you expect your results to change if you treated them with both EcoRI and HindIII in the same tube?
Why might it be safer for the virus to have its DNA become circular when it enters the host, rather than remain linear?
A 22-kb piece of DNA has the following restriction sites:A batch of this DNA is first fully digested by HpaI alone, then another batch is fully digested by HindIII alone, and finally, a third batch is fully digested by both HpaI and HindIII together. The fragments resulting from each of the three digestions are placed in separate wells of an agarose gel, separated by gel electrophoresis, and stained by ethidium bromide. Draw the bands as they would appear on the gel.
For Pet41 (choose Pet41 a, b, or c as provided in the image) how would you design the primers (forward and reverse) for the following gene of interest and what restriction enzymes would be used (as shown in the image)? Be sure to explain and elaborate on why selected and how.

- A group of overlapping clones, designated A through F, is isolated from one region of a chromosome. Each of the clones is separately cleaved by a restriction enzyme, and the pieces are resolved by agarose gel lectrophoresis,with the results shown below. There are nine different restriction fragments in this chromosomal region, with a subset appearing in each clone. Using this information, deduce the order of the restriction fragments in the chromosome.arrow_forwardWhen linear DNA is sequenced, the nucleotide base pairs are numbered from the start to finish. a DNA molecule that is 3133 base pairs long is digested with RsaI restriction enzyme recognition sites at base numbers 366, 1534, and 2207. What are the sizes of the DNA fragments that will be produced after the DNA is digested with RsaI?arrow_forwardRefer to the diagram of pUC18 (Fig.) to determine which restriction enzymes you could use to insert a gene that would interfere with production of β-galactosidase by the host cell.arrow_forward
- Below is a map of the E. coli cloning vector after the insertion of pka-1. Ori denotes the origin of replication; amp denotes the ampicillin resistance gene. HindIII, BamHI, SalI, and EcoRI designate restriction enzyme sites. There are no other restriction enzyme sites found on this vector. The numerals denote the number of base pairs between different locations on the plasmid. For instance, there are 400 base pairs between the HindIII and BamHI site, and there are 3000 base pairs in the entire cloning vector (following the integration of pka-1). With the use of well-illustrated diagrams, reconstruct the entire cloning process by explaining different stages of the cloning process that involves the following: Isolation of target DNA fragments (often referred to as inserts) Ligation of inserts into the plasmid, creating recombinant molecules Transformation of recombinant plasmids into bacteria or other suitable host for propagation Screening/selection of hosts containing the intended…arrow_forwardA linear piece of DNA that is 30 kb long is first cut with BamHI, then with HpaII, and, finally, with both BamHI and HpaII together.

Digesting the 10 kb fragment with BamHI yields three fragments, each ranging in size from one to three and a half kilobytes. Four pieces of 0.5, 1, 3 and 5.5 kb are formed after using both enzymes. Create a restriction map for this 10 kb piece of DNA using the information you have collected. Make a note of where the two enzymes cut, as well as the distances between the enzymes.arrow_forward
