  1. A single base pair of DNA weighs 1.1 × 10–21 grains. How many picomoles of a plasmid vector of length 2750 bp are contained in 1 ug of purified DNA?
    1. 0.30
    2. 0.55
    3. 0.25
    4. 0.91 ​
Correct Option: B

Given, weight of single base pair of DNA​​​= 1.1 * 10–21 grains ​​
Length of plasmid vector= 2750bp ​​
Purified DNA= 1ug ​​
Thus, 0.55 picomoles of a plasmid vector of length 2750bp are contained in 1ug of purified DNA.
