The following diagram showing restriction sites in E.coli cloning vector pBR322. Find the role of 'X' and 'Y' genes :
| 1. | The gene 'X' is responsible for controlling the copy number of the linked DNA and 'Y' for protein involved in the replication of Plasmid. |
| 2. | The gene 'X' is 'for protein involved in replication of Plasmid and 'Y' for resistance to antibiotics. |
| 3. | Gene 'X' is responsible for recognition sites and 'Y' is responsible for antibiotic resistance. |
| 4. | The gene 'X' is responsible for resistance to antibiotics and 'Y' for protein involved in the replication of Plasmid. |
