The technique involving insertion of a desired gene into the DNA of plasmid vector is know as

A

Gene splicing

B

Gene dressing

C

Gene cloning

D

Gene drafting

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The term gene splicing is sometimes used for formation of novel DNA (recombinant DNA). Most workers prefer to employ the term gene cloning for union of a gene with plasmid vector as the same is then used for formation of the copies of the gene. Gene splicing carries a different meaning than RNA splicing.
