    • 3 Pages

    BigDye® Terminator v3.1 Cycle Sequencing Kit provides everything we need in order to generate a sequence all we need to do is add one primer and the DNA template. These reagents are suitable for performing fluorescence-based cycle sequencing reactions on single-stranded or double-stranded DNA templates, on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) fragments, and on large templates. First, you must prepare your template by performing a DNA extraction and purifying your template. The purification will be…

    to determine the probability of gene expression when a trait is sex linked (WA-COMP-2009.SCI.1.1.6.F). I identified the organelles in a plant and an animal cell, and described their location and functions within each cell (WA-COMP-2009.SCI.1.1.6.A and WA-COMP-2009.SCI.1.1.6.C). In one of the worksheets, I drew the chemical pathways responsible for cell responses; one of them being the breakdown of glycogen to produce glucose when adrenalin ligand binds to the G protein-coupled receptors…

    significance of the project DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is the main chemical components of Chromosome, and is the material composition of genes. In the breeding process, the parent is passed to the offspring to copy part of their own DNA, thus completing the spread of traits. DNA is well-suited for biological information storage. The DNA backbone is resistant to cleavage, and both strands of the double-stranded structure store the same biological information. DNA analysis is important in…

    named François Jacob and Jacques Monod explored how the regulation of transcription of DNA affects the enzyme levels in a cell. They found this information through experiments in eubacteria and eukaryotes. According to Kireeva (2013) “However, the DNA-dependent RNA polymerase proved elusive until 1960, when it was independently identified in bacteria by Hurwitz and Stevens and in plants by the Bonner group” (p. 8325). There were also many experiments after these in which the scientists focused…

    1983: The Methodology of PCR and its Applications in Forensic Science Introduction The technique of PCR: Polymerase Chain Reaction was introduced by an American scientist Kary Mullis, for which in the year 1993, he was jointly awarded the Nobel prize in chemistry, with Michael smith, for his contribution in site-mutagenesis. Kary was working as a chemist at the Cetus Corporation, a biotechnology firm in Emeryville, California, where he came across an idea to amplify a desired DNA strand…

    large C-terminal domain of the Klenow fragment? Answer: The large C-terminal domain contains a significantly deep cleft, with a considerable area to enable the binding of the B-DNA. The overall domain itself is shaped almost like a cupped right hand where, in this case, α-helices on either side of the cleft form the thumb and fingers, while the β sheet forms the palm of the hand. Q3) What secondary structures make up the…

    are a housing unit for DNA. DNA, also known as deoxyribonucleic acid, is a simple molecule found in all living organisms. DNA has a unique structure, made up of a double helix, base pairing, and hydrogen bonding, all working together to make it stable. The double helix is made up of a phosphate backbone. These phosphates create a bond between the sugars and themselves,…

    4. Multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction Multiplex PCR is molecular biology technique for amplification of multiple targets in a single PCR reaction. Indeed, multiplex PCR is a modification of conventional or realtime PCR in which two or more different PCR products are amplified within a single reaction (Henegariu, 1997). In a multiplexing assay, more than one target sequence can be amplified using multiple primer pairs in a reaction mixture. As an extension to practical use of PCR, this technique…

    Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) Generalities PCR is a method developed in 1985 by Kary Mullis and to obtain, by coupling a heat-resistant DNA polymerase and without cloning, amplification of a fragment of DNA known. Initially, DNA polymerase was isolated from a bacterium thermophilne (resistant to significant increases in temperature), as Thermus aquaticus (Taq polymerase). Currently, we use recombinant enzymes, whose; elaboration is easier and greater efficiency. The general principle of PCR is…
