Introduction A mutator strain is one that lacks certain repair methods when a mistake is made during DNA replication. The strain of E. coli that was used in this lab‚ XL-1 Red Mutator‚ lacked three different repair methods used to correct mistake in DNA replication. If a mistake occurred‚ the E. coli would not be able to make repairs via DNA polymerase backtracking‚ mismatch repair‚ or oxo-dGTP hydrolysis. The E. coli will still be able to use the other ways to repair mistakes including SOS

this experiment is to investigate the process of Electrophoresis and successfully analyse DNA fragments. Hypothesis: That the experiment will show the visual representation of DNA proteins‚ and that the shorter the band the further is will travel. Background: Restriction enzymes are DNA-cutting enzymes found in bacteria‚ which cut DNA into smaller fragments. A restriction enzyme recognizes and cuts DNA only at a particular sequence of nucleotides‚ known as restriction sites. Restriction enzymes

Discussion: The liver homogenate was expected to have the highest amount of protein concentration‚ DNA concentration‚ and total glucose when compared to the other homogenates. The liver was the biggest organ in B. taurus and it carried out numerous functions such as producing bile‚ synthesizing proteins for blood clots‚ and recycling old red blood cells. The liver ended up containing the most DNA concentration‚ but it was surpassed in protein concentration by the kidney. The protein concentration

Edwin Southern invented the molecular technique of Southern Blotting in 1975. This technique is very useful because of its ability to detect a specific DNA sequence from a large amount of DNA ⎯ even from the whole genome. This specific sequence can be found through a combination of two different techniques: Agarose Gel Electrophoresis and Hybridization‚ which is known as Southern Blotting. This technique if performed in three phases: (I) prepare the gel and (II) make the blot‚ (III) hybridize and

Name: Mugabe Rodrigue Class: Grade 11B Subject: Biology Topic: DNA Extraction From Onion Date: 20/1/2014 Introduction: DNA‚ or deoxyribonucleic acid‚ is the hereditary material in organisms. Nearly every cell in an organism has the same DNA. Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus.The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A)‚ guanine (G)‚ cytosine (C)‚ and thymine (T). The order‚ or sequence‚ of these bases determines the information available for

Chromosome is in the nucleus of every cell. Each chromosome is mostly made up of coiled DNA. Besides DNA‚ there are also proteins in each Chromosome. The interesting point is that in Chromosome‚ DNA tightly coiled a lot of times around proteins and it supports the basic structure of chromosome. The way that Chromosome forms motivates me to think of how DNA and proteins in the Chromosome relate to each other both in the aspect of location and the aspect of biology function. For the second question

under controlled lab conditions to observe how the crossover frequencies of S. fimicola may change under the “environmental stresses” of standard lab conditions. The general hypothesis for this experiment is that if increased crossover and mutation of DNA occurs in organisms when they are subjected to more extreme and variable conditions‚ then the S. fimicola strains grown in “optimal” and constant laboratory conditions should exhibit less crossover of genes. Without any pressing environmental stresses

added to precipitate the cellular components. The mixture was then centrifuged for 10 minutes and the supernatant was transferred to a new tube. Isopropanol was then added to precipitate the plasmid DNA and centrifuged into a pellet‚ dried‚ and then resuspended with distilled water. This plasmid DNA was then run on an agarose gel to view the stands of

The Precogs’ Dehumanization In Minority Report and "The Minority Report” How we define human‚ subhuman and superhuman is complex‚ with many intricacies and unknowns. The relationship between them‚ regarding the Precogs in The Minority Report short story as well as the film‚ is complex between these two forms of dehumanization and humanization. For those unfamiliar with the works‚ the three Precogs are collectively‚ literally‚ the human engine which enables Precrime to exist. In both works‚

3.2 DNA Extraction The DNA will be extracted from the Nemipterus samples according to Wizard® Genomic DNA Purification Kit (Promega) protocols. The first step of is cells and nuclei will be lysed by adding 120 µl of 0.5 Molar ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) to 500 µL of Nuclei Lysis Solution in a eppendorf tube‚ then it will be chilled on ice until the solution turn cloudy. The second step is 0.5 cm of Nemipterus sample tissue will be minced to fine powder. The fine powder of fresh Nemipterus
