Question

the structure in bacteria is used in genetic engineering to carry new genes into other organism is______?​

Answer 1

Answer:

A plasmid (also called a vector in this context) is a small circular DNA molecule that replicates independently of the chromosomal DNA in bacteria. In cloning, the plasmid molecules can be used to provide a “vehicle” in which to insert a desired DNA fragment.

Answer 2

Answer:

Plasmids

After the foreign gene is inserted, another enzyme, called a ligase, is used to sew the plasmid together. Plasmids are ideal vectors for carrying the new gene into a host cell, because, in nature, plasmids are routinely passed from one bacterium to another, where they are readily accepted.
