BIOS 390 ERIC KYLE WEEK 3 & 4 : LAB

BIOS 390 ERIC KYLE WEEK 3 & 4 : LAB DNA cloning is the process of making multiple, identical copies of a certain piece of DNA. A gene or other DNA fragment of interest is first inserted into a circular piece of DNA called a plasmid. The insertion is done using enzymes that are able to “cut and paste” DNA, and then a molecule of recombinant DNA is produced. Next, the recombinant plasmid is introduced into bacteria. Bacteria carrying the plasmid are selected and grown up. As they reproduce, ...
