Recombinant DNA and PCR
RECOMBINANT DNA AND PCR · IMAT Doutor1 / 1
To clone a human gene in a bacterium so that a functional protein is produced, it is preferable to start from cDNA rather than genomic DNA because:
A
cDNA already carries a bacterial promoter
B
cDNA contains no introns, which bacteria cannot remove
C
cDNA is more stable than genomic DNA
D
cDNA is single-stranded and easier to insert
E
genomic DNA cannot be cut by restriction enzymes
