Which Step in Gene Cloning Can Occur Even More Rapidly

Question

Which step in gene cloning can occur even more rapidly by PCR?
A) Target DNA removed from cells and isolated
B) Cloning host treated with calcium chloride and receives plasmid
C) Target DNA and plasmid treated with the same restriction endonuclease
D) Desired protein is produced by cloning host
E) Gene is ampliﬁed by multiplication of cloning host

Accepted Answer

PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) is a technique used to rapidly amplify segments of DNA, making it a faster method for gene amplification compared to the traditional method of waiting for the cloning host to multiply.
