Question

Xhol (TCGAG) cuts at 3478 (4 nt 5' ext)

What are the positions of BamHI and XhoI digestion sites? How many fragments and how big are the fragments after digesting with only one enzyme? How many fragments and how big are the fragments after digesting with both enzymes? Show your calculation/explanation.

Explanation / Answer

BamHI digestion will result in a linear product of 4751bp as BamHI cuts the circular plasmid ones and produces a cleave leading to plasmid linearization.

XhoI digestion will result in a linear product of 4751bp as XhoI cuts the circular plasmid ones and produces a cleave leading to plasmid linearization.

Double digestion with BamHI and XhoI will produce 2 cuts/ nicks in the circular plasmid producing 2 products of sizes smaller fragment of 506bp and larger fragment of 4245 bp
