bio informatics and determining human genome

Question 1

define genome

Answer 1

the total genetic material in an orgimismsd

Question 2

define a proteome

Answer 2

all the amino acids coded for by genes in an organism

Question 3

what is bio informatics

Answer 3

comutors used to store, analyse + use formulae to analyse data
(cellect and analyse complex data)

Question 4

what is used to map out the total genome

Answer 4

wgs

Question 5

what are wgs and what do they do

Answer 5

cut dna into small sequences and computor matches overlapping regions
the snp’s are regions identifies by wgs and are used to identify disorders/diseases

Question 6

what are snps and what are their importance

Answer 6

regions of dna identified by wgs and are associated with disorders/ diseases
this is important as identifying high risk means easy to provide intervention

Question 7

what is full genome sequencing

Answer 7

mapping out / sequincing organims nuclear dna and dna from other organelles- mitochondria + chloroplasts

Question 8

why is full genome sequencing important

Answer 8

can help map out genome of virus/ pathogen, identifying wich protiens can be used in potential vaccine

Question 9

define degenerate

Answer 9

different base codes that code for more than one amino acid

Question 10

if a virus infected on particular species how can it also affect anouther species

Answer 10

mutation in viral dna
changes in tertiary structure
alters shape of attachment protiens
allow attachment protiens to bind to other species
