What is a CLONE ?

EcoRI
5’-GAATTC-3’3’-CTTAAG-5’
GCTTAA
AATTCG
Sticky end ; protruding, cohesive, overhang
Average length ; 46 = 4,096 bp
Palindrome(rotational symmetry)
Restriction endonuclease
Bacterial lawn
plaque
1. Restirction endonuclease 2. ligase
- Use ATP for formation of phosphodiester bond
Sticky end ; 5’-protruding, EcoRI : 3’-protruding, PstIBlunt end; SmaIHeteroschizomer ; SmaI, XmaI cf) isoschizomer

Restriction-modification system
Bacterial lawn
plaque
-CH3Methylases methylate the recognition sites for
restriction endonuclease to protect the host DNA.
The methylation is conserved during replication
process.
Vectorplasmid pBR322
The first letter or plasmid should be noted by lower case “p”.
vector insert
1.Replication origin2.Selection marker ; antibiotic resistance gene3.Multicloning sites (MCS)
pUC19
Ampicillin, X-gal, IPTGβ-galactosidase
Self-ligationClone cloning
- Dephosphorylation ; Alkaline phosphatase - directional cloning ; compatible
LyticLysogenic
Vs. colony
Average insert size ; ~ 15 kb

Disadvantages of plasmid- Size - transformation efficiency
Phage vector
Plaque hybridization
colony hybridizationLibrary, screening
P P PP
Homologous gene
혼성화탐침자가방사법
Probe ;1. Polynucletide probe ; homologous gene stringency; low or high
- temp.- denaturing agent ; - ionic strength
2. Oligonucleotide probe ; 17-mer, 21-mer
- degenerated primer U G U
UGG AUG UUC AAA AAC GA W M F K N Q
Cosmid, YAC, BAC; Average length ?
Phagemid
Helper phage

5’3’ polymerization 5’3’ exonuclease 3’ 5’ exo.
Nick translation
Could we directly clone a specific genomic sequence
or cDNA by PCR without screening ?
