Plasmid pBR322 has Pst I restriction enzyme site within gene ampR that confers ampicillin resistance. If this enzyme is used for inserting a gene for -galactosidase production and the recombinant plasmid is inserted in an E. coli strain

1. It will be able to produce a novel protein with dual ability
2. It will not be able to confer ampicillin resistance to the host cell
3. The transformed cells will have the ability to resist ampicillin as well as produce -galactosidase
4. It will lead to lysis of host cell
