(2022).This video demonstrates the initiator-dependent amplification of a suicide plasmid in E. coli. The plasmid, which carries an antibiotic resistance gene, replicates only in the presence of an initiator protein encoded by the host. After electroporation and incubation in recovery medium, the mixture is plated on antibiotic-containing agar.
