A. Read the following section to review what you learned about plasmids, transformation and antibiotic
selection (which antibiotic?)
Plasmids and Recombinant DNA Technology
A plasmid is a circular piece of extra-chromosomal DNA (between 2000-10,000 bp) that is normally found in
bacteria. In nature, the plasmid will often contain a gene that encodes a protein that allows the bacteria to be
resistant to antibiotics, or a protein that allows the bacteria to cause an infection. Plasmids were discovered by
researchers in the late sixties, and it was quickly realized that they could be used to amplify a gene of interest to
create recombinant DNA. The gene of interest is inserted into the plasmid at restriction endonuclease sites. The
plasmid can then be used as a vector to shuttle DNA to a different host/bacteria.
There are many different kinds of plasmids commercially available. All of them contain:
1. a selectable marker (i.e., a gene that encodes for antibiotic resistance, color change, etc)
2. an origin of replication (which is used by the DNA making machinery in the bacteria as the starting
point to make a copy of the plasmid)
3. a multiple cloning site (MCS). The multiple cloning site has many restriction enzyme sites and is used to
insert the DNA of interest. The multiple cloning site is usually in the middle of a reporter gene like Lac
Z.
