Gene Cloning Process - 3 Mini Steps of Step 2 |
|
Definition
1. Cut vector and chromosomal DNA with restriction enzymes EcoRI. 2. Sticky ends hydrogen-bond w/ each other due to complimentary sequences. 3. DNA ligase is added. |
|
|
Term
Gene Cloning Process (Step 3 of 2) - What happens when DNA ligase is added? |
|
Definition
Closes gap (catalyzes formation of covalent bonds in DNA backbone) |
|
|
Term
Gene Cloning Process (Step 2 of 2) - What happens when sticky ends hydrogen-bond w/ each other due to complimentary sequences? |
|
Definition
Fragment of DNA carrying the gene of interest hydrogen bonds to vector |
|
|
Term
What happens when fragment of DNA carrying the gene of interest hydrogen bonds to the vector? |
|
Definition
4 gaps where covalent bonds in DNA backbone are missing |
|
|
Term
What is the purpose of gene cloning? |
|
Definition
To survey all the genes in the genome of an organism or all the genes expressed in a certain tissue of an organism |
|
|
Term

Term
What is the role of restriction endonucleases? |
|
Definition
They cut the DNA at specific sequences known as Restriction Sites |

What does the PCR process amplify? |
|
Definition
DNA w/o bacterial cloning |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
DNA is heated to separate strands |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Temp is lowered, which allows primers to bind to the Template DNA |

Term
Sticky Ends on DNA Fragments |
|
Definition
Can be produced by restriction enzymes, joined together by DNA ligase, and have complementary sequences that can be hydrogen bonded together |
