Basic Techniques in rDNA
technology
Manipulation of DNA in vitro
Transfer of the construct into a host cell
(transformation ) and maintenance of the
cloned DNA in the cell
Cloning or production of many identical
progeny, of phages or plasmids
Identification and selection of the
transformed host cells (those which have
taken up the constructs)
Manipulation of the DNA construct to ensure
production of the protein encoded by the
cloned sequence
