2. Steps for Southern Blotting Digest the DNA with an appropriate restriction enzyme. Run the digest on an agarose gel. Denature the DNA‚ which would separate double-stranded DNA into single-stranded DNA. Transfer the denatured DNA to the membrane. Probe the membrane. Visualize your radioactively labeled target sequence. If you used a radiolabeled 32P probe‚ then you would visualize by autoradiograph. 3. a) She placed the nucleotide as she did because the EcoR I cuts in one

LSM1102 Lab Report Introduction Transformation is a process which involves plasmid DNA being bound to the cell surface and the subsequent uptake of DNA by the cell (Panja et al.‚ 2008). For artificial transformation of E. coli cells with plasmids‚ plasmid DNA has to be extracted from bacterial cells using the High-Speed Plasmid Mini Kit‚ which is then mixed with competent E. coli cells followed by heat shock and the streaking of transformed cells on two different types of agar plate (LB and LB+ampicillin)

Omar Shbeeb Toothpick Enzyme Lab 9/25/13 Introduction Enzymes are used in all metabolic reactions to control the rate of reactions and decrease the amount of energy necessary for the reaction to take place. They are responsible for the thousands of chemical interconversions that sustain life. Enzymes are referred to highly selective catalysts‚ meaning they speed up the rate of metabolic reactions. To react‚ they need to find a perfect match with a substrate. They converge at a place called an

Transformation Lab Report Introduction Transformation is the transfers of virulence from one cell to another‚ through the transferring of genetic material. It was originally postulated in 1928 through the works of Federick Griffith‚ a British microbiologist. Griffith observed that the mutant form‚ non-virulent form‚ of the bacteria Streptococcus Pnumoniae could be transformed into the normal‚ virulent form‚ when injected into mice along with heat killed normal forms. He concluded that somehow

later! Protein Portion 1. OK‚ so remember that back in the day‚ we had protein and nucleic acid resulting from a centrifugation…Well‚ now we’re dealing with the protein portion‚ which is solid 1. We take half the protein and add pancreatic enzyme a. This enyzme will hydrolyze the protein into its amino acid subunits a. This simulates how the hydrolytic process is carried out naturally‚ because in real life it is done with enyzmes! 1. And the other half of the protein

DNA is the key for our genetic apperance. DNA is a double stranded and is formed by blocks of nucleotides. Nucleotides each consist of three parts. A phosphate‚ a pentose sugar (deoxyribose) and a nitrogenous base. The nitrogenous bases carry the information for proteins which are needed in our body to function properly. Proteins are made according to the nitrogenous bases. When DNA replicates‚ it’s extremely important that it is copied exactly. If it’s not the protein which is produced according

Purpose In this lab‚ we used PCR and gel electrophoresis to identify genetically modified food. Introduction A genetically modified organism is an organism whose DNA or genetic makeup has been modified to code for certain desirable traits("Genetically Modified Foods"). Common genetically modified plants include corn and soy‚ and common genetically modified animals are fish. Many genetically modified plants are coded to resist bugs‚ grow faster‚ and produce bigger fruit‚ while most GMO animals
