Question

A research team is studying regulatory sequences for genes that are important for control of the cell cycle. The researcher would like to construct a DNA library that contains these regulatory sequences for all of the cell cycle genes. What type of library what they construct, a genomic or cDNA library? A research team is studying regulatory sequences for genes that are important for control of the cell cycle. The researcher would like to construct a DNA library that contains these regulatory sequences for all of the cell cycle genes. What type of library what they construct, a genomic or cDNA library?

Explanation / Answer

A genomic library would be constructed because cDNA library will have the sequence found only in mRNA and not the entire genome. Moreover, cDNA will not have a clone for every gene present in the genome.
