Expert Solution

Reaction mixture for digestion -

Genomic DNA containing GFP gene
Restriction enzyme with which we want to cut GFP gene
Buffer which will help in maintaining a constant pH for the working of restriction enzyme
Sterile water which will help in the making of the final volume of the reaction mixture

Restriction enzyme is an enzyme which is used to cut DNA at a specific location. It is also called as molecular scissors. It is a great importance in Recombinant DNA technology because it helps in the isolation of specific genes from the genomic DNA of an organism. It cuts DNA at a specific location called as restriction site which is a set of 4 to 8 base pairs. The enzymes are very specific for the restriction site. Even a single base pairs change in the restriction site unable the enzyme to cut the DNA.

Please give a good rating.

•In colony PCR of E. Coli, we were amplifying the GFP gene. In restriction digest, we were cutting out the GFP gene. The GFP gene is about 700 bp (base-pairs) and the entire plasmid including the GFP gene is about 3700 bp. Either draw out or explain where you would expect to see bands on the gel for each sample: •a) single digest, b) double digest, c) uncut miniprep, d) GFP PCR, e) control PCR

Background Calculating Transformation Efficiency Restriction digest & ligation: You add restriction enzymes to 0.05ug of each plasmid in separate pAMP and pKAN tubes tubes and heat the restriction enzymes by placing them in a hot water bath for 20 minutes. Afterwards, you label 1 tube pAMP/pKAN and combine 4 ul of digested pAMP, 4 ul of digested pKAN, 1 ul of ligase, and 1 ul of ligase buffer and leave it to incubate overnight. You then label an empty tube...
