An antibiotic resistance gene in a vector usually helps in the selection of transformed cell. Antibiotic resistance gene is a selectable marker gene which helps in the selection of transformed cells. With the help of marker, the cells carrying the vector (transformants) are easily distinguished from non transformants by selectively permitting the growth of transformants.
