Microinjection is suitable for :
1. Injecting an ovum into the sperm in IVF
2. Transforming animal cells
3. Injecting very small sized drug particles into neurons
4. Conferring antibiotic resistance to a certain strain of bacteria
The plasmid pBR322 does not contain:
1. An origin of replication site
2. A gene that encodes for restrictor of plasmid copy number
3. Gene for Ampicillin and Streptomycin resistance
4. Sites for many restriction enzymes
Restriction enzymes are synthesized by:
1. Bacteria only
2. Yeast and bacteria only
3. Eukaryotic cells only
4. All kinds of cells
The bioreactor shown in the diagram is:

3. BamH I and SaI I
4. SaI I and Hind II
What is true A,B and C in the given diagrammatic representation of rDNA technology ?
I. At A same restriction enzyme is used to cut both foreign and vector DNA
II. The enzyme used at B is DNA ligase
III. Step C can be called as transformation
1. I and II only
2. I and III only

4. I,II and III
The process of separation and purification of expressed protein before marketing is called
(1) upstream processing
(2) downstream processing
(3) bioprocessing
(4) postproduction processing
What is the criterion for DNA fragments movement on agarose gel during gel electrophoresis ?
(1) The larger the fragment size, the farther it moves
(2) The smaller the fragment size, the farther it moves
(3) Positively charged fragments move to farther end
(4) Negatively charged fragments do not move
A gene, whose expression helps to identify transformed cells is known as
1. selectable marker
2. vector
3. plasmid
4. structural gene
