Solution
The correct option is C ampr - Antibiotic resistance gene
The following diagram shows the basis components of E. coli cloning vector pBR322:
The functions of a few components in a plasmid -
ampr - antibiotic resistance gene. They enable the bacteria to survive the effects of the antibiotic ampicillin and serves as a characteristic to recongnise transformed cells.
ori - Origin of replication.
rop - gene coding for the Rop protein, which promotes conversion of the unstable RNA I – RNA II complex to a stable complex.
EcoRI and BamHI - restriction sites
