What is the function of non-coding DNA besides structural? There has been speculation about Non-coding’s function. Non-coding DNA has been said to be “Junk DNA” until scientists have found evidence for it having a structural function. More scientists are now trying to find more functions that Non-coding DNA might have. Non-coding DNA lies between genes on the Chromosome and does not code for amino acids. Regular DNA is also found in the Chromosome‚ but it does code for amino acids with help from

info in my DNA become my traits? This is a question that has been asked by many over the course of history.To answer this question we need to answer three essential questions‚ the first‚ how did we get our DNA‚ how did we go form one cell to trillions‚ and how did DNA become our traits. There is one essential driver to all of this‚ DNA‚ to understand DNA‚ we need to know what DNA is. DNA is two strands that contain genetic information in four bases‚ adenine‚ guanine‚ cytosine and thymine. DNA is located

experiment would be how the Restriction Endonucleases cleave the strands of DNA. For this experiment‚ pBR322 was the specimen to use. Restriction Endonucleases work by cleaving the sugar phosphate backbone of specific DNA sites. Restriction enzymes that have been isolated from bacteria have a defensive role. This idea is illustrated when an attacking foreign cell DNA is trying to alter the bacteria; restriction enzymes cleave the DNA rendering it inert. The second part of the experiment deals with Gel

Electrophoresis and DNA fingerprinting Jani Lynette Hagen October 31‚2014 U74644799 Electrophoresis is a technique which uses an electric field to separate molecules‚ allowing for identification and characterization of the molecules. It is commonly used to separate nucleic acids and protein molecules of various sizes. To prepare the gel for electrophoresis the amount of agrose needed must be calculated. For a 0.8 percent gel 0.8 grams of agrose is necessary per 100 ml of buffer. The DNA fingerprinting

DNA extraction and purification is an essential tool in understanding the biological basis and significance of a eukaryotic cell. Its role is pivotal to numerous scientific applications ranging from basic science research to applied research. Hence‚ DNA is found in all living organisms. Fragaria x ananassa‚ also known as a strawberry has been widely used as one of the many biological models in studying DNA structures due to its accessibility. Strawberries are octoploid which contain large genomes

extract DNA from a strawberry using limited household items. This was accomplished with the prior knowledge that the DNA is stored in the nucleus of the cell‚ and that is an extraction buffer would be needed to acquire the DNA. This experiment had no control group‚ however‚ if there was a control group it might be a group with no extraction buffer. The independent variable in this experiment is the extraction buffer. The dependent variable in this experiment is the ability to extract DNA. The constants

Many people believe that DNA profiling is not a credible source. Although 99.9 percent of human DNA is the same in everyone‚ the remaining 0.1 percent which consists of about 3 million base pairs of amino acids is unique to that individual (Ballaro and Walter). Without the help of scientists and their technology many criminals would get away with their crimes. Deoxyribonucleic acid‚ or DNA‚ is a component of every cell in the human body. DNA can be found in any organic source for example saliva

DNA replication mechanism is an integral and the most important part of cell division. It is a complicated mechanism that requires a lot of steps and different enzymes. Many scientists were trying to understand the mechanism of DNA replication and its role in the transfer of the hereditary information to the offsprings. DNA replication begins with a single origin of replication that starts off the process by creating a replication bubble. In many eukaryotic cells‚ the DNA strand will have more than

DNA FINGERPRINTING LAB REPORT DNA contains genetic material and information that makes up each individual trait. Every person can be identified by providing his or her genetic information based on a particular DNA strand. DNA information is an effective way of identifying persons if it is used properly. It is used to identify humans in different situations such as crime scenes‚ accident scenes‚ paternity testing‚ soldier remain identification‚ inheritance claims‚ missing person investigations‚
