Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You need to clone a gene with a sticky end using EcoRI into a plasmid that has also been cut with EcoRI. Describe the steps you would take.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider what other components might be required in the process.

Question 2

Explain how you would resolve a situation where you accidentally used a blunt-end producing restriction enzyme instead of a sticky-end one. How might this affect the cloning efficiency?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how docking works with different cut types.
