Question

Arrange the following steps of recombinant DNA technology into the correct order.

Insert the recombinant DNA back into the bacterium.
Bacterium replicates, transcribes, and translates many new copies of the
donor gene's protein.
Insert the donor gene into the plasmid to make the recombinant DNA
molecule.
Open the plasmid
Remove a bacterial plasmid.
Remove the gene to be donated.

Answer 1

1. Open the plasmid.

2. Remove a bacterial plasmid.

3. Remove the gene to be donated.

4. Insert the donor gene into the plasmid to make the recombinant DNA molecule.

5. Insert the recombinant DNA back into the bacterium.

6. Bacterium replicates, transcribes, and translates many new copies of the donor gene's protein.
