Introduction The purpose of this lab was to demonstrate the use of gene therapy on diseases that are caused by a single gene defect. This procedure was demonstrated on two different strains of baker’s yeast‚ EAY 235 and EAY 431‚ which both contained mutations in the LEU2 and TRP1 genes. Neither of these strains will grow without a proper medium that would supply both of these essential amino acids. The EAY 431 strain of yeast also contained a Rad 52 deletion‚ which caused EAY 431 to be a deficient

Brandon Schmetterer 3-13-15 Biology labs DNA Extraction Lab DNA is extracted from humans for genetic testing‚ for body identification‚ and for analysis of forensic evidence. The first step of DNA extraction is to take cheek cells from the test subject. Next‚ the cells must be burst open in order to release DNA. Third‚ DNA is separated from protein and debris. Lastly‚ the DNA must be isolated. A buccal swab is necessary in order to collect the cheek cells .The micropipettes are used to add lysis

CHARACTERIZATION BY ELECTROPHORESIS Abstract The molecular weights of protein extracts were assessed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Two sets of four protein samples‚ standard bovine serum albumin (BSA)‚ invertase‚ egg albumin‚ and casein‚ were prepared; one set containing β-mercaptoethanol (BME) while the other did not. These were then analyzed through SDS-PAGE with 12.5% resolving gel‚ prepared using 2 M Tris-HCl at pH 8.8 and stacking gel‚ prepared using

Lipid and protein composition varies in tissue types. Results: When comparing liver‚ muscle‚ and adipose tissue‚ adipose tissue had the highest percent lipid and liver tissue had the highest percent protein. Conclusion: Based on analysis of the gels‚ the liver appeared to have the most variety in proteins when comparing liver‚ muscle‚ and adipose tissue. Significance: In order to determine the composition of a tissue‚ specific macromolecules can be extracted‚ quantified‚ and analyzed. ABSTRACT

method of Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was conducted using a negatively charged protein and pre-stained molecular weight markers. The hypothesis was that the molecular weight of N-acetyl-β-D-hexosaminidase B would be 28‚000 kDa. To confirm or reject the hypothesis‚ the molecular weight of N-acetyl-β-D-hexosaminidase B and the concentration of protein had to be determined. The electrophoresis of the protein gel were conducted using a Hoefer SE 600 Ruby at 30

Biology 20 IB Design Lab Does increasing or decreasing the ph level of a 3% concentration H2O2 (l) solution affect the amount of oxygen released between 15.0ml of the solution and a 5g sample of liver? The reaction is measured by the difference in mass of a balloon that is used to capture the amount of gas released by the catalase enzyme found in liver reacting with a basified 3% H2O2 (l) and an acidified 3% H2O2 (l) . Chemical reactions occur when two or more molecules interact and the molecules

Tim Readmond AP Biology Lab Report I. Title a. Modeling Diffusion and Osmosis II. Introduction a. If one places a 1.0 M solution of glucose inside a bag and then places that bag into a beaker containing a 1.0 M solution of sucrose‚ the percent of mass lost in the bag is 10.5%. The solution in the bag is hypertonic while the solution in the beaker is hypertonic‚ which is why water moves from the bag to the beaker and the bag loses mass. b. The purpose of this experiment is to see whether

DNA Extraction Lab Purpose: To compare the amount of DNA extracted from two different species‚ despite using the same method. Hypothesis: I predict that the liver will produce a higher quantity of DNA than the strawberry. This is because I believe that animals have a higher DNA yield because our structure is more complex than a plant’s structure. Materials: -Sample of Strawberries -Zip lock bag -DNA extraction buffer -Cold ethanol -Glass rod -Double ply cheese cloth -Two test tubes
