Exhibit 13D the Plasmid PSU922 Is a Circular DNA Containing

Multiple Choice

Exhibit 13D The plasmid pSU922 is a circular DNA containing 25000 base pairs.The b-gal gene codes for the enzyme b-galactosidase,the product of which will turn bacterial colonies blue when grown in the presence of X-gal; the Amp^R gene confers ampicillin resistance.
