  4. Molecular Biology Cloning vectors H1 Design of Plasmid Vectors The insertion of a DNA fragment interrupts the ORF of lacZ’ gene, resulting in non-functional gene product that can not digest its substrate x-gal.

  18. Molecular Biology H3 Cosmids and YACs H3-2 Cosmid vectors Cosmids use the λ packaging system to package large DNA fragments bounded by λ cos sites, which circularize and replicate as plasmids after infection of E.coli cells. Some cosmid vectors have two cos sites, and are cleaved to produce two cos ends, which are ligated to the ends of target fragments and packaged into λ particles. Cosmids have a capacity for cloned DNA of 30-45 kb.

  20. Molecular Biology H3 Cosmids and YACs H3-3 YAC vectors Yeast artifical chromosomes can be constructed by ligating the components required for replication and segreation of natural yeast chromosomes to very large fragments of target DNA, which may be more than 1 Mb in length. Yeast artifical chromosome(YAC) vectors contain two telomeric sequences(TEL), one centromere(CEN), one autonomously replicating sequence(ARS) and genes which can act as selectable markers in yeast.

Bacterial plasnids carrying eukaryotic genes may remain transiently in cells without replication or may integrate into the host genome by recombination at low frequency.
