You plan to clone exon 11 of the HEXA gene (Section C) into the multiple cloning site (MCS) of the plasmid vector pUC19 illustrated below. You PCR amplify only the 184 bp DNA region representing exon 11 of HEXA from human DNA as a blunt-ended dsDNA fragment, and purify the amplicon. Next you digest the vector pUC19 with the restriction enzyme (RE) Smal to obtain linear plasmid DNA. You mix the PCR product and linear plasmid, add some DNA ligase enzyme in an appropriate buffer, and incubate overnight at 16°C. The ligation mixture is used to transform competent E. coli cells, which are subsequently streaked out onto agar plates containing ampicillin, X-gal and IPTG.

Question

The question is: 

You plan to clone exon 11 of the HEXA gene (Section C) into the multiple cloning site (MCS) of the
plasmid vector pUC19 illustrated below. You PCR amplify only the 184 bp DNA region representing
exon 11 of HEXA from human DNA as a blunt-ended dsDNA fragment, and purify the amplicon.
Next you digest the vector pUC19 with the restriction enzyme (RE) Smal to obtain linear plasmid
DNA. You mix the PCR product and linear plasmid, add some DNA ligase enzyme in an appropriate
buffer, and incubate overnight at 16°C. The ligation mixture is used to transform competent E. coli
cells, which are subsequently streaked out onto agar plates containing ampicillin, X-gal and IPTG.
