BCH 369L–Biochemistry Laboratory Fall 2016 Module C Orlando Martinez uteid: olm298 Introduction The purpose of this lab is to implement the technique of gel electrophoresis in the purification and size determination of various proteins and DNA fragments. In order to do this‚ a polyacrylamide gel will be prepared and placed in a buffer-containing gel electrophoresis apparatus. Next‚ an aliquot of acid phosphatase and a molecular weight marker (Composed of Phosphorylase B‚ bovine serum albumin‚ ovalbumin

Restriction Endonuclease Digestion of DNA from E. coli cells and Analysis by Agarose Gel Electrophoresis Introduction The main goals of this experiment are testing an alternative procedure called “boiling lysis”‚ evaluating the quality of the purified plasmid for restriction digests‚ and identifying the mislabeled plasmid. The plasmid DNA from a carrier E. coli strain was purified by the boiling lysis. In the boiling lysis method‚ the bacterial cells were given momentary heat treatment

Biochemistry‚ sometimes called biological chemistry‚ is the study of chemical processes within‚ and relating to‚ living organisms.[1] By controlling information flow through biochemical signaling and the flow of chemical energy through metabolism‚ biochemical processes give rise to the complexity of life. Over the last 40 years biochemistry has become so successful at explaining living processes that now almost all areas of the life sciences from botany to medicine are engaged in biochemical research

Biochemistry- The Basics An Atom is the basic unit of a chemical element ( smallest unit for measuring chemical & physical properties) Smallest particle of an element is an atom A Particle is a small portion of matter Matter is composed of elements___ Matter makes up everything in the universe. An Element is a pure substance that cannot be broken down into a simpler substance. ex. carbon‚ hydrogen‚ etc A molecule is a group of atoms bounded together ex O2 A chemical compound

from the simple elements and compounds on the Earth’s surface. Biochemistry asks how the remarkable properties of living organisms arise from the thousands of differ-ent lifeless biomolecules. When these molecules are iso-lated and examined individually‚ they conform to all the physical and chemical laws that describe the behavior of inanimate matter—as do all the processes occurring in living organisms. The study of biochemistry shows how the collections of inanimate molecules that consti-tute
