Transformation of E. coli with pGAL™ (Blue Colony) 221
|
|
|
|
In this experiment, your students can see a blue color change in transformed cells due to the switching on of a gene. The pGAL™ plasmid gives them a blue color due to the production of the ß-galactosidase protein by the lacZ gene. IPTG is not required in this experiment since pGAL™ contains the complete lacZ gene.
