NEETZoologyBiotechnology - Principles and Processes
Vectors for Gene Cloning Examples A. Plasmid Vectors 1. Used for cloning in bacterial cells B. Bacteriophage Vectors 2. Vector derived from Agrobacterium tumefaciens C. Ti Plasmid 3. Vector used to clone genes in animal cells D. Retrovirus 4. Virus that can be engineered to deliver DNA to animal cells
Options
- AA - 2, B - 1, C - 4, D - 3
- BA - 1, B - 2, C - 3, D - 4
- CA - 3, B - 4, C - 1, D - 2
- DA - 1, B - 3, C - 2, D - 4
Correct answer
D. A - 1, B - 3, C - 2, D - 4
Step-by-step solution
Plasmid vectors are used for cloning in bacterial cells, bacteriophage vectors are used to clone genes in bacterial cells, the Ti plasmid is derived from Agrobacterium tumefaciens and is used in plant gene cloning, and retroviruses can be engineered to deliver DNA to animal cells.
