... In every case, the recombinant DNA must be taken up by the cell in a form in which it can be replicated and expressed. This is achieved by incorporating the DNA in a vector. an example of cloning using E. coli as the host and a plasmid as the vector. vector Plasmids are sometimes called "vectors", b ...
