25
How can the double helix rapidly dissociate
Heated at 100C or exposed to ph ≥ 13
26
Process of disturbing base pairs and dissociating double helix
DNA denaturation
27
Process of DNA reforming double helices at 65C
Hybridization
28
DNA circles are cut with
Restriction nuclease
29
Cuts DNA at specific sequences, may leave sticky ends
Restriction enzymes
30
A collection of all the cloned DNA fragment from a target genome
Genomic library
31
Genomic library vectors
Plasmid, phage, bacterial artificial chromosome
32
Extracting the mRNA and making a DNA copy
cDNA
33
cDNA reaction is catalyzed by
Reverse transcriptase enzyme
34
cDNA clone and entire connection derived from one mRNA
cDNA library
35
Single - stranded cDNA converted to double stranded cDNA by
DNA polymerase
36
Most important advantage of cDNA clones
Contain uninterrupted coding sequence of a gene
37
To deduce amino acid sequence of protein or produce protea in bulk it's preferable to start with
cDNA
38
Rapid cloning of genes allows DNA to be amplified
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
39
PCR relies on a pair of
Primers
40
Repeated cycle of steps for PCR
- sample is heated to separate strands - sample is cooled and primer binds to target sequence - target sequence is copied with heat-stable DNA polymerase
41
Separates DNA molecules based on size
Gel electrophoresis
42
Gel electrophoresis current moves
Negative electrode to positive
43
More through gel pores quickly and farther
Shorter DNA fragments
44
Genetic markers used in DNA profiling
Short tandem repeats
45
Standard for DNA profiling analyzes how many STR sites
13
46
Uses of DNA profiling
- Forensics - paternity tests - identification of human remains - species identification
47
Shows colored peaks representing nucleotides
Automated DNA sequencing
