genomics and boinformatics Flashcards
genomics
study of all the genes in genome
bioinformatics
use computers databases to organize adn analyze biological data
DNA microarray use
a tool that allows scientis ts to look at many genes and their expressions at once
DNA microarray def.
small chip with all genes being studies laid out in a grid pattern
how it works
flourescent complementary DNA is added to micrarray and it bonds to DNA showing which genes are being expressed and how much (after manipulate conditions)
proteotomics
study of proteins that results from organism’s genome (function and ineaction)
HUman genome project goals
1- sequence all base pairs of entire genome of human
2- identify all the genes withing genome
humangenome project current goals
- llocation and function of genes
- hap map that studies how DNA secquences vay among peopls
