Oct 2012 LSM 1101 Biochemistry of Biomolecules Class 1a: Nucleic acids Our class on DNA is divided into 3 parts: (I) Genetics (II) DNA structure (III) Concepts and applications. I. Genetics: In the primordial period‚ simple molecules were formed from atoms and from these molecules‚ macromolecules were formed. These macromolecules formed life and all living organisms. The classical genetic and heredity observations in the 19th century started the search for the origin of life. The transforming

Biological chemistry 1B Experiment 1: Thin layer chromatography [TLC] Aim The aim of this experiment is to apply the technique of TLC to first separate out a mixture of coloured dyes and then to do the same for selected range of amino acids. Procedure 2 MMs of each different colour were collected into separate beakers. Approximately 5 drops of water is added to each of the beakers containing the MMs and the tablets were stirred until

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

1. Explain how carbon’s electron configuration and valence result in its ability to form large and complex organic molecules. These covalent bonds can be single‚ double‚ or triple bonds‚ but one carbon atom is limited to only 4 covalent bonds. It can bond with other carbon atoms and different atoms (H‚ O‚ N‚ P‚ S) to form long chains‚ ring shaped molecules‚ and branched/irregular shapes. 2. Explain why the combination hydrocarbon backbone +functional group(s) accounts for the unique functions

Overview Snake venom is the poison fluid normally secreted by venomous snakes when biting. It is produced in the glands‚ and injected by the fangs. Snake venom is used to immobilize and/or kill prey‚ and used secondarily in defence. It is a clear‚ viscous fluid of amber or straw colour. There are two main types of venom produced by snakes‚ containing primarily either: *Neurotoxins - these attack the nervous system. *Hemotoxins - these attack the circulatory system. While most snakes’ venom contains
