WORKSHEET- BIOTECHNOLOGY PRINCIPLES AND PROCESSES Q. 1 Restriction enzymes should not have more than one site of action in the cloning site of a vector. Comment. Q. 2What does ‘competent’ refer to in competent cells used in transformation experiments? Q. 3 What is the significance of adding proteases at the time of isolation of genetic material (DNA)? Q. 4 While doing a PCR, ‘denaturation’ step is missed. What will be its effect on the process? Q. 5 A plasmid DNA and a linear DNA (both are of the same size) have one site for a restriction endonuclease. When cut and separated on agarose gel electrophoresis, plasmid shows one DNA b and, while linear DNA shows two fragments. Explain. Q. 6 How does one visualise DNA on an agarose gel? Q. 7 A plasmid without a selectable marker was choosen as vector for cloning a gene. How does this affect the experiment? Q.8 Identify and explain A, B and C in the PCR diagram given . Q. 10 Name the regions marked A, B and C. Q. 11. Illustrate the design of a bioreactor. Highlight the difference between a flask in your laboratory and a bioreactor which allows cells to grow in a continuous culture system.
