Cloning of Plasmid and Spinach DNA

For Teachers 12th - Higher Ed
Young scholars ligate fragments of genomic DNA from spinach into a vector plasmid. They perform a restriction enzyme digestion. Student use a ligated DNA molecule to transform E. coli cells. Students analyze their procedures and...

The Cloning of Plasmid and Spinach DNA

For Teachers 10th - 12th
Young scholars will first extract genomic DNA from spinach and perform a restriction enzyme digestion on both the spinach DNA and the plasmid using the same restriction enzyme. They then ligate the cut plasmid DNA with the cut spinach...
