| Which among the following statements about cloning vectors is incorrect ? |
To link the alien DNA, the vector needs to have a single recognition site for the commonly used restriction enzymes. ‘Ori’ is a sequence responsible for controlling the copy number of the linked DNA. Selectable marker selectively permitting the growth of the non-transformants . The ligation of alien DNA is carried out at a restriction site present in one of the two antibiotic resistance genes. |
| Selectable marker selectively permitting the growth of the non-transformants . |
| In addition to ‘ori’, the vector requires a selectable marker, which helps in identifying and eliminating non-transformants and selectively permitting the growth of the transformants. |
