Part 4. Putting It Together

1) Consider the diagram below as well as the given information.

This diagram represents a piece of circular DNA which was cut in 4 separate reactions (4 different test tubes, each with some of this DNA in it). One digest was done with AvaI, another with ClaI, a third with EcoRV, and a fourth with ScaI. The locations of the recognition sequences for each restriction enzyme are shown along with the location of that site in bp along the circle (it goes clockwise from position 1). You run an agarose gel with a molecular weight marker in the first lane, the AvaI digest in lane 2, the ClaI digest in lane 3, the EcoRV digest in lane 4, and the ScaI digest in lane 5.
