Molecular Cloning: Cloning Vectors
• Plasmids

Grand-daddy of plasmids
![Page 4: Molecular Cloning: Construction of a recombinant DNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/56815ca2550346895dcaa873/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Molecular Cloning: Cloning Vectors
• Plasmids– Origin of replication, determines the
number of copies per cell– Marker genes: ampicillin and
tetracycline resistance genes– Unique restriction enzyme cut sites
![Page 5: Molecular Cloning: Construction of a recombinant DNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/56815ca2550346895dcaa873/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Creation of a polylinker or multiple cloning site

Molecular Cloning: Cloning Vectors
1. Plasmids– Origin of replication, determines the
number of copies per cell– Marker genes: ampicillin and
tetracycline resistance genes– Unique restriction enzyme cut sites
• Polylinker of MCS– Small size
• Limitation is ~15,000 bp
![Page 7: Molecular Cloning: Construction of a recombinant DNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/56815ca2550346895dcaa873/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Entry of DNA into cells• Chemical Transformation
– Treat cells with calcium chloride– Heat shock
• Electroporation– High voltage transiently makes
bacterial membrane permeable

Special examples of different plasmids
A. Expression vectors– Strong promoter for transcription– Ribosome binding site– Transcription terminator– Some way of controlling gene –
making it inducible

Fusion proteins
Tag expressed protein with another protein or short
peptide
![Page 12: Molecular Cloning: Construction of a recombinant DNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/56815ca2550346895dcaa873/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Type of Tags• Fluorescent proteins
– Examples is the green fluoresecent protein or GFP
![Page 13: Molecular Cloning: Construction of a recombinant DNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/56815ca2550346895dcaa873/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Type of Tags• Fluorescent proteins
– Examples is the green fluoresecent protein or GFP
• Epitope tag– Short peptide sequence which has an
antibody that recognizes it specifically
![Page 15: Molecular Cloning: Construction of a recombinant DNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/56815ca2550346895dcaa873/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Type of Tags• Fluorescent proteins
– Examples is the green fluoresecent protein or GFP
• Epitope tag– Short peptide sequence which has an
antibody that recognizes it specifically• Metal chelator
– Can bind to Ni or Co chelated and immobolized

Special examples of different plasmids
B. Shuttle vectors– Contains origins of replicatioin from
two different organisms– Can be replicated in both – Often used to shuttle plasmids from
bacteria to C. Cosmids – related to bacteriophages
![Page 18: Molecular Cloning: Construction of a recombinant DNA](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/56815ca2550346895dcaa873/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Molecular Cloning: Cloning Vectors
2. Bacteriophages: example is lambda– 1/3 of genome (48.5 Kb) is non essential– DNA is packaged into phage particles– Can only fit 40 – 53 Kb of DNA – Have an in vitro packaging system– Highly efficient at transforming bacteria – Can clone up to 23 Kb of DNA

proper segregation– Telomere sequences– Suitable for very large DNAs

A DNA library• Collection of DNA clones• Source for gene discovery• Largest example is genomic library• Other subsets would be such
things as:– cDNA libraries
• Can scan these libraries by DNA hybridization
