ATP for reaction energetics A microbiologist designs an experiment to transfer a gene from a pathogenic bacterium into a laboratory strain of Escherichia colit discover whether the gene confers virulence. One method for transferring the gene into E. coli would be to use a ligase reaction. restriction digestion. polymerase chain reaction. cloning vector. sequencing reaction. x Your answer is incorrect.
