Descriptor vectores genéticos
Entry term(s) vectores de clonación
vectores transportadores
Scope note: Moléculas de ADN capaces de duplicación autónoma dentro de una célula huésped en las cuales pueden insertarse y amplificarse. Muchos derivan de PLÁSMIDOS, BACTERIÓFAGOS o VIRUS. Se utilizan para transportar genes extraños al interior de células receptoras. Los vectores genéticos poseen un sitio duplicador funcional y contienen MARCADORES GENÉTICOS que facilitan su identificación selectiva.

Scope note: DNA molecules capable of autonomous replication within a host cell and into which other DNA sequences can be inserted and thus amplified. Many are derived from PLASMIDS; BACTERIOPHAGES; or VIRUSES. They are used for transporting foreign genes into recipient cells. Genetic vectors possess a functional replicator site and contain GENETIC MARKERS to facilitate their selective recognition.
