(a)
To determine: The reason that a recA protein mutation in Escherichia coli make it a better host for the propagation of recombinant plasmid DNA (Deoxyribose
Introduction: Restriction endonucleases which are also called molecular scissors are the enzymes that are used in molecular biology for the formation of the recombinant molecule. Plasmid vectors act as the carriers of foreign information that has to be incorporated into a recombinant molecule.
