Exp. 5 Flashcards
(if sample is plant) – done by mechanical disruption through crushing or blending
Breaking of cell wall
Breaking of cell membrane to expose organelles – done by adding the____________ which is an amphipathic substance
dishwashing liquid
The long hydrocarbon tail of ________ breaks the lipid bilayer of cell membrane while the _______ polar head is attracted to the water
soap
binds to the negatively charges phosphate end of the DNA chain to protect the chain as well as increases the separation of DNA from the hydrophobic layer
Salt
removes cellular debris from the sample
Filtration
Precipitation with cold alcohol
▪ DNA becomes_______ in water in the presence of salt and alcohol (more polar)
insoluble
DNA is more soluble to______ than_____ (because it is more polar),
alcohol
water
Sugar + Nitrogen Base
Nucleoside
Bonds between sugar ang base
Glycosidic bonds
Bonds between sugar + phosphate
Phosphodiester bonds
- removes the lipids and push DNA to the salt solution
dishwashing liquid
- increases separation of negatively of DNA from hydrophobic layer; aggregates DNA
sodium chloride
– promotes aggregation of DNA and wash the DNA from the salt
Add cold ethanol
Nucleotide is composed of
base
sugar
phosphate group
joins the base and the sugar
Glycosidic bond
joins the phosphate and sugar group
phosphodiester bond
