Q1. What is our chassis organism?
A1.E.coli (DH-5α) and Acetobacter xylinum.
We use DH-5α for DNA cloning and we also use the E.coli as a model microorganisms to check the function of cloned DNA. We were going to transform A. xylinum. A. xylinum was used in an industry field and is normally present in the environment.
