FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is BAC?
A bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) is a DNA construct derived from an F-plasmid, used for cloning in bacteria, typically E. coli. During the Human Genome Project, researchers created a BAC library to break down the human genome into manageable fragments for sequencing. Unlike standard plasmids, BACs are maintained as a single copy per bacterial cell.
