Recombinant DNA - Medical Science

Q1:

Which of the following is obtained using processed mRNA molecules as a template?

A rDNA

B mDNA

C cDNA

D tDNA

ANS:C - cDNA

cDNA is a complementary DNA of processed m RNA.

In eukaryotes the gene is interrupted with introns (non coding regions) to obtain the desire target gene cDNA is used for further processing. That's why these processed m RNA (without introns) is used from which we make cDNA.
