5 Questions
What is the purpose of restriction digestion in generating an expression vector?
To ensure the insert is cloned in only one orientation
What is the next step after ligating vector and insert together in generating an expression vector?
Transform into E. coli
What is the purpose of selective media in generating an expression vector?
To select for cells that have taken up the vector
What is the difference between directional cloning and non-directional cloning?
Directional cloning ensures the insert is cloned in only one orientation, while non-directional cloning does not
