restriction enzymes
|
cut DNA molecules in specific places.
|
|
vector molecule
|
each cut-up fragment becomes a vector. A carrier capable of transporting the DNA fragment into a cell.
|
|
2 types of vectors
|
bacteriophages, plasmid
|
|
plasmid
|
smaller, circular dna molecule
|
|
transformation
|
uptake of foreign dna by cells
|
|
recombinant plasmid
|
foreign dna spliced into it.
|
|
sticky ends
|
result of cutting dna in a staggered fashion. b/c they pair (by HB) w/ complementary, single-stranded ends of other fragments.
|
|
2 sticky ends atttach
|
treated with DNA ligase- links the ends to form a recombinant dna
|
|
genome
|
total DNA per cell
|
|
genomic library
|
collection of thousands of dna fragments that represents all the dna in the genome.
