Identify the properties of a good vector used in rDNA technology:
(a) | It should have origin of replication supporting a high copy number |
(b) | It should have preferably more than '2' recognition sites |
(c) | The restriction sites in vector should be in the antibiotic- resistant genes |
(d) | It should have suitable marker genes |
(e) | It should be easy to isolate and purify |
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
1. | (a), (c) and (e) only | 2. | (c), (d) and (e) only |

Plasmid pBR322 has a PstI restriction enzyme site within gene ampR that confers ampicillin resistance. If this enzyme is used for inserting a gene for -galactoside production and the recombinant plasmid is inserted in an E.coli strain,
1. | it will lead to the lysis of host cells. |
2. | it will be able to produce a novel protein with dual abilities. |
3. | it will not be able to confer ampicillin resistance to the host cell. |
4. | the transformed cells will have the ability to resist ampicillin as well as produce β -galactoside. |
The two antibiotic resistance genes on vector pBR 322 are for:
1. Ampicillin and Tetracycline
2. Ampicillin and Chloramphenicol
3. Chloramphenicol and Tetracycline
4. Tetracycline and Kanamycin
