6Restriction enzymes used in cloning experiments
Blunt ends are compatible with any other Blunt
end Sticky ends are only compatible with an
end that leaves the complementary
single- stranded overhang. Because sites are
palindromic, sites cut with the same enzyme are
compatible Single stranded overhang aids
ligation preligation complex lasts longer.

21Summary
Cloning involves the action of enzymes for DNA
repair and replication Libraries Restriction
enzymes cut DNA at predictable sites. Ligase
enzymes repair phosphate bonds to create a
single DNA molecule from fragments. Transformatio
n Once inside E. coli, plasmids are replicated
by natural DNA polymerases. Identify desired
clones Disruption of a genes function can be
used to identify bacterial colonies with
plasmids that have taken up an insert in that
gene.
22Analysis methods
Protein isolated, sequence of peptide determined.
cDNA clone isolated and sequenced. DNA
sequences that could encode fragments predicted
based on related genes. Make DNA oligonucleotide
that matches, Make a radioactive probe, Use to
screen phage, YAC, BAC, or plasmid library
23One method to identify cloned inserts with a
chosen DNA sequence
Transfer bacteria (phage) onto nitrocellulose Filt
ers. Make the filter a replica of the
plate Lyse the bacteria so the DNA is fixed in
place Probe with a radioactive probe Isolate
positive clones- Sequence insert Express
protein if possible.
