Polymerase Chain Reaction
• Objective is to produce a specific DNA sequence in-vitro
• Amplification of the target DNA can be done from minute amount of starting material
• DNA synthesis is catalyzed by a thermo stable DNA polymerase

RT-PCR Can be used for cloning
• Restriction enzyme sites can be added to the cDNA of interest
• Able to generate sticky ends for ligation into vector of choice
• 2 sticky ends permits directional cloning

6) (6 points) For your independent research project, your supervisor is asking you to clone the coding region of gene X (see below) in the bacterial expression vector pQE30 using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Write the sequence of two oligonucleotides that will allow you to clone the coding sequence in the vector. The recombinant protein must be as short as possible. Note: The coding sequence must be in frame with the ATG of the vector. The start and stop codons of gene X are underlined.Coding sequence of gene XGTCGATCAAT ATGGAACATG TTTACTCCAA ACCACCGCAC ACCAATTATG GAAACCAAGC CGGAAAAGAA TTCCGGTGGA GAGCGAAAAA AAAGGATTCC GAATCGTGAA CTGCCAAAAA CATTTTGAAG CCAACGATTC CGACGTCATC CTCGCCACCC TAGCTAAATC AGGCACCACT TGGTTAAAAG CTCTTCTCTT TGCTCTCATT CACCGACACA AGTTCCCAGT TTCTGGCAAG CATCCTCTTC TGAAACAGCA GTAGCAGCGT TTAAAGGGAA GTTTATT Oligo #1 5’ ___________________________________________Oligo #2 5’ ___________________________________________BamH1 = GGATCCHindIII = AAGCTT
