Questions and Answers

Which genetic element is commonly used as cloning vectors for small gene fragments?

Bacteriophages

What can M13 phage generate in isolated gene segments?

Mutations

Why are genetic elements significant components of biological kingdom?

They provide opportunities for introducing foreign genes into model organisms

Study Notes

  • λbio particles lack nonessential genes for lysogenic cycle
  • These particles can replicate and form plaques
  • They are denoted as λpbio
  • Plasmids are commonly used as cloning vectors for small gene fragments
  • Bacteriophages can accommodate larger DNA segments and make genomic DNA fragment libraries
  • M13 phage can generate mutations in isolated gene segments
  • Transposons provide opportunities for introducing foreign genes into model organisms
  • Genetic elements are significant components of biological kingdom
  • They are worthy of study
  • Researchers exploit genetic elements for laboratory manipulations.
