In recombinant DNA technology, vectors are used to transfer a gene of interest in the host cells. Mention any three features of vectors that are most suitable for this purpose.
The vectors in the recombinant DNA technology are utilized in transferring the gene of interest in the host cells due to the following features of vectors: (i) Vectors constitute of origin of replication (Ori) where the gene of interest attaches. (ii) They constitute various selectable markers for the various genes of interest. (iii) They are also composed of at least one recognition site.
