- Problem: You want to clone a cDNA into an expression vector so you can make large amounts of the protein in E. coli. The cDNA is flanked by BamHI sites and you plan to insert it at the BamHI site in the vector. The manual recommends that you cleave the vector DNA and then treat it with alkaline phosphatase to remove the 5’ phosphates. The next step is to mix the treated vector with the BamHI-cut cDNA fragment and incubate with DNA ligase. After ligation the DNA is mixed with bacterial cells that have been treated to make them competent to take up DNA. Finally, the mixture is spread unto culture dishes with a solid growth medium that contains an antibiotic that kills all cells that have not taken up the vector. The vector allows cells to survive because it carries a gene for resistance to the antibiotic. The cloning manual also suggests four controls: Control 1: plate bacterial cells that have not been exposed to any vector onto the culture dishes. Control 2: Plate cells that have been transformed with the vector that has not been cut. Control 3: Plate cells that have been transformed with vector that has been cut (but not treated with alkaline phosphatase) and then incubated with DNA ligase (in the absence of the cDNA fragment). Control 4: Plate cells that have been transformed with vector that has been cut and treated with alkaline phophatase and then incubated with DNA ligase in the absence of the cDNA fragment). - This experiment is discussed: You want to clone a cDNA into an expression vector so you can make large amounts of the protein in E. coli. The cDNA is flanked by BamHI sites and you plan to insert ...
