Short Answer Questions

Question. Explain with the help of an example the relationship between restriction endonuclease and a palindromic nucleotide sequence. 
Answer. Restriction endonuclease recognises a specific palindromic nucleotide sequence in the DNA.
Restriction endonuclease cuts the strand of DNA a little away from the centre of palindromic nucleotide sequence but between the same two bases on the opposite strands, leaving single stranded portions at the end called sticky ends.

CBSE-Class-12-Biology-Biotechnology-Principles-and-Processes-Assignment-Set-A-1.png

Question. Would you like to choose an exonuclease enzyme while producing a recombinant DNA molecule? 
Answer. No, as exonuclease acts on the free ends of linear DNA molecule. Therefore, instead of producing DNA fragments with sticky ends, it will shorten or completely degrade the DNA fragment containing the gene of interest, and the circular plasmid (vector) will not get cut as it lacks free ends.

Question. Name the natural source of agarose. Mention one role of agarose in biotechnology.
Answer. The natural source of agarose is sea weed. Agarose is a natural polymer. It is used to develop the matrix for gel electrophoresis. It helps in the separation of DNA fragments based on their size.

Question.  Restriction enzymes present in the cloning site of a vector should not have more than one recognition site. Comment. 
Answer. If the restriction enzymes have more than one recognition site in a vector, then the vector itself will get fragmented on treatment with the restriction enzyme.

Question. Write any four ways used to introduce a desired DNA segment into a bacterial cell in recombinant technology experiments. 
Answer. (i) The desired DNA segment is inserted into a cloning vector and the bacterial cell can be made to take it up after making them competent by treating them with specific concentration of
divalent cations such as calcium.
(ii) Microinjection
(iii) Biolistics
(iv) Disarmed pathogen vector

Question. A plasmid without a selectable marker was chosen as vector for cloning a gene.
Answer. In a gene cloning experiment, first a recombinant DNA molecule is constructed, where the gene of interest is ligated to the vector and introduced inside the host cell (transformation). Since, not all the cells get transformed with the recombinant/plasmid DNA, in the absence of selectable marker, it will be difficult to distinguish between transformants and non-transformants, because role of selectable marker is in the selection of transformants.

Question. How can DNA segments, separated by gel electrophoresis, be visualised and isolated?
Answer. The separated DNA molecules are visualised only after staining DNA with ethidium bromide followed by exposure to UV radiation. They appear as bright orange coloured bands. The separated bands of DNA (on the gel) are cut from the agarose gel and extracted from the gel piece. This process is called elution.

Question. Why does the ‘insertional inactivation’ method to detect recombinant DNA is preferred to ‘antibiotic resistance’ procedure? 
Answer. In insertional inactivation method, the presence of a chromogenic substrate gives blue coloured
colonies in absence of an insert. Presence of an insert in the enzyme site does not produce colour.
This is because insertional inactivation of the β-galactosidase has taken place due to the insert.
Antibiotic resistance method requires duplicate plating. It is a cumbersome procedure to perform.

Question. (a) A recombinant vector with a gene of interest inserted within the gene of a-galactosidase enzyme, is introduced into a bacterium. Explain the method that would help in selection of recombinant colonies from non-recombinant ones.
(b) Why is this method of selection referred to as “insertional inactivation”?
Answer. (a) Bacteria is grown in a medium with chromogenic substrate, blue coloured colonies show no recombinations and colonies with no blue colour show presence of recombinants.
(b) Gene for the enzyme is inactivated by insertion of foreign DNA.

Question. While doing a PCR, ‘denaturation’ step is missed. What will be its effect on the process?
Answer. If denaturation of double-stranded DNA does not take place, then primers will not be able to anneal to the template, no extension will take place, hence no amplification will occur.

Question. Why and how bacteria can be made ‘competent’? 
Answer. Bacteria are made competent to accept the DNA or plasmid molecules. This is done by treating them with specific concentration of a divalent cation such as calcium to increase pore size in cell wall. The cells are then incubated with recombinant DNA on ice, followed by placing them briefly at 42°C and then putting it back on ice.

Question. DNA being hydrophilic cannot pass through the cell membrane of a host cell. Explain how does recombinant DNA get introduced into the host cell to transform the latter. 
Answer. DNA being a hydrophilic molecule, cannot pass through cell membranes.
- Therefore, the bacteria should be made competent to accept the DNA molecules.
- Competency is the ability of a cell to take up foreign DNA.
- The cell is made competent by the following methods:
(i) Chemical method (ii) Physical method

Question. What modification is done in the Ti plasmid of Agrobacterium tumefaciens to convert it into a cloning vector?
Answer. T-DNA is the only essential part required to make Ti plasmid a cloning vector. The plasmid is disarmed by deleting the tumour inducing genes in the plasmid so that it becomes an effective cloning vector and remove it harmful effect.

Question. What would happen when one grows a recombinant bacterium in a bioreactor forget to add antibiotic to the medium in which the recombinant is growing bacterium?
Answer. In the absence of antibiotic, there will be no pressure on recombinants to retain the plasmid (containing the gene of your interest). Since, maintaining a high copy number of plasmids is a metabolic burden to the microbial cells, it will thus tend to lose the plasmid.

Question. Rearrange the following in the correct sequence to accomplish an important biotechnological reaction:
(a) In vitro synthesis of copies of DNA of interest
(b) Chemically synthesised oligonucleotides
(c) Enzyme DNA-polymerase
(d) Complementary region of DNA
(e) Genomic DNA template
(f) Nucleotides provided
(g) Primers
(h) Thermostable DNA-polymerase (from Thermus aquaticus)
(i) Denaturation of dsDNA
Answer. Correct sequence is
i→ e→ b/g→ g/b→ c/b→ h/c→ f→d→ a 

Question. How can the following be made possible for biotechnology experiments?
(a) Isolation of DNA from bacterial cell.
(b) Reintroduction of the recombinant DNA into a bacterial cell. 
Answer. (a) By treating cell with lysozyme
(b) Microinjection/gene gun

Question. Name the source organism that possesses Taq polymerase. What is so special about the function of this enzyme?
OR
Name the organism from where the thermostable DNA polymerase is isolated. State its role in genetic engineering. 
Answer. Source organism: Thermus aquaticus
The enzyme can tolerate high temperature and is thus thermostable. It does not get denatured during PCR at high temperature.

Question. How are recombinant vectors created? Why is only one type of restriction endonuclease required for creating one recombinant vector? 
Answer. The construction of recombinant DNA is done by linking a gene encoding antibiotic resistance with a native plasmid. These plasmid DNA act as vectors to transfer the piece of DNA attached to it.
Only one type of restriction endonuclease is required for creating recombinant vector because when cut by the same enzyme, the resultant DNA fragments have the same sticky ends, which can be joined together using DNA ligases.

Question. Name the type of bioreactor shown. Write the purpose for which it is used.

CBSE-Class-12-Biology-Biotechnology-Principles-and-Processes-Assignment-Set-A-2.png

Answer. The given bioreactor is the simple stirred tank bioreactor.
Its purpose is large scale production of recombinant protein or enzymes, using microbial plants/ animals/human cells.

Question. (a) Explain how to find whether an E.coli bacterium has transformed or not when a recombinant
DNA bearing ampicillin resistant gene is transferred into it.
(b) What does the ampicillin resistant gene act as in the above case? 
Answer. (a) E.coli bearing transferred recombinant DNA are first grown on ampicillin containing medium and then transferred on to a medium containing tetracycline. The transformants will grow only in ampicillin containing medium and not in tetracycline containing medium. The nontransformants,on the other hand, will grow in both the mediums.
(b) Ampicillin resistant gene acts as a selectable marker and helps in selecting the transformants.

Question. “Cotton bollworms enjoy feeding on cotton plants, but get killed when feed on Bt cotton plant”. Justify the statement.
Answer. Bt-cotton plant is a transgenic plant that produces an insecticide for bollworm. Bacillus thuringiensis is the bacterium that has a Bt gene or Cry gene
which is incorporated in the cotton plant through biotechnological methods and thus, it produces a crystalline product Bt. The product acts as a toxin when ingested by the pests as it gets activated after reaching the alkaline gut of pests and creates pores in the intestine and kills the pests. The gene protects the GMO against budworm, bollworm, beetle, borer, etc.

Question. Explain the role(s) of the following in Biotechnology :
(i) Restriction endonuclease

Question. Name and explain the technique that helps in the separation of DNA fragments for
DNA recombinant technology experiments.
How can these separated DNA fragments be visualised ?
Answer. Gel electrophoresis, Since DNA fragments are negatively charged, they move towards anode (under an electric field) through a medium / matrix / agarose gel. The fragments separate (resolve) according to their sizes through sieving effect provided by agarose gel. The separated DNA fragments can be visualised after staining the DNA with ethidium bromide, followed by exposure to UV radiation.
