You extract DNA from a eukaryotic organism and isolate

You extract DNA from a eukaryotic organism and isolate a specific gene that consists of exons and introns. You restriction digest the gene to cut both ends, restriction digest a plasmid to open it up, and you insert the gene into the plasmid and ligate the cut ends together, being sure to have the gene under the appropriate control of a bacterial promoter. You then transform E. coli with this new plasmid. What will E. coli do with this plasmid? Produce a much larger protein than the eukaryotic organism did from this gene Perform RNA splicing on the corresponding mRNA Be unable to read the sequence of this gene Be unable to transcribe this gene
