प्रश्न
Write the role of Ori and 'restriction' site in a cloning vector pBR322.
उत्तर
Ori- It is a genetic sequence that acts as the initiation site for replication of DNA. Any fragment of DNA, when linked to the ori region, can be initiated to replicate.
Restriction site- It is the recognition site for restriction enzymes (such as EcoRI, Hind III, PvuI, BamHI, etc.). Recognition sites are the genetic sequences from where the restriction enzymes cut the DNA.
