Question

Which vector was used in the first cloning experiment involving mammalian cell?

Answer 1

A vector based on Simian virus 40 (SV40) was used in first cloning experiment involving mammalian cells

Answer 2

Vector:

In first cloning experiment, vector was used vector based on simian virus 40.  Now a days, the commonly used vector is pBr322. This vector is used in a lot of cloning processes both in bacteria and eukaryotic cells. Being small, it is much more useful and it has considerable amount of carrying capacity.

In genetic science, vector is the small gene material i.e. DNA molecule that can be maintained inside an organism stably and can be reproduced each time the organism reproduces.
