- . Early gene-cloning experiments involved insertion at one restriction site in the vector; for example, the insert would have an EcoRI site at each end, and the vector would be opened at an RI site prior to ligation. Under what circumstances would asymmetric cloning be desirable, with the inset having a different restriction site at each end9. The restriction site sequence for the restriction enzyme Sau3Al and BamHI include four identical bases, making their sticky ends identical as shown in the figure. Let's say you have foreign DNA whose flanking regions were cut with Sau3AI. Also, you want to use a plasmid containing a BamHI restriction site. (1) Would it be possible to ligate the foreign DNA into the BamHI site of the plasmid? Explain. lison Lenharc (2) Would it be possible to cut the ligated sites with Sau3AI? What about BamHI?
