Construct a recombinant bacteria strain with a gene mutated. You
need to design and suggest the steps.
1) cloning of gene
2) mutation (how to do it)
3) which homologous recombinant method you use
4) how to verify the strain
Explain the steps in detail.
1. Treat the donar strain with mutagen
2. Isolate DNA from Donor strain
3. Amplify the gene of interest using gene specifuc primers in polymerase chain reaction which is a technique to increase the quantity of DNA
4. Digest a plasmid and gene of interest using same restriction enzyme
5. Ligate the plasmid and gene of interest
6. Transfer the plasmid into recipient strain using heat shock method
7. Once the plamsid goes inside homologous sequences from donar strain chromosomal DNA and plasmid DNA interact to insert the mutant gene instead of normal gene.
