Introduction For this experiment we compared and analyzed various DNA fragments in order to determine if these DNA fragments originated from the same individual. The learning objective for this lab is to gain a better understanding of how DNA fingerprinting works. In this lab the primary function is to determine which DNA fragments match the DNA fragment found on the crime scene. To determine if any of the DNA fragments match the fragment found at the crime scene‚ the DNA fragments must undergo the

POLYTECHNIC UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES Department of Biology COLLEGE OF SCIENCE A written report on Monica Angelique Ramos BS BIO 4-2 I. Definition Microsatellites (also called simple sequence repeats or SSRs) are a class of genetic polymorphism commonly used for mapping‚ linkage analysis and to trace inheritance patterns. It is a specific sequence of DNA bases (nucleotides) made up of short segments of 1-6 bp repeated in more or less uniform tracts up to ~102 bp long. They are

IMMUNOCHEMICAL TECHNIQUES: Immunochemistry is an advanced area of immunology. It deals with the chemical components and chemistry (chemical reactions) of immunological phenomena that is of antibody and antigen. Immunochemical methods are processes utilizing the highly specific affinity of an antibody for its antigen. It detects the distribution of a given protein or antigen in tissues or cells. The methods used for the immunochemical analysis are called Immunochemical techniques. Characteristics/Advantages

AP ESSAY ANSWERS: 16-20 1. Information transfer is fundamental to all living organisms. For TWO of the following examples‚ explain in detail‚ how the transfer of information is accomplished. A) The genetic material in one eukaryotic cell is copied and distributed to two identical daughter cells. B) A gene in a eukaryotic cell is transcribed and translated to produce a protein. C) The genetic material from one bacterial cell enters another via transformation‚ transduction or conjugation

carboxymethycellulose (CMC) is a cation exchange that is chemical weak. It has a negative charged carboxyl groups‚ they are active above the pH of 4.5. Gel Electrophoresis The Sodium dodcecyl sulphate (SDS) gel is based on the principle that the proteins are all given a negative charge. This allows all proteins to migrate to the positive end of the gel. The gel is made of a certain size pore which means the migrtation is based only on the size of the proteins. The smallest proteins will migrate to the positive

Fish phylogenetic tree based on protein size Amanda Reed Lab partners: Lecia Redwine‚ Kyle Hatcher TA: Baneshwar Singh Biology 117‚ Section 25 Tuesday 10:30 AM Introduction Although tree diagrams have been used since the days of Charles Darwin‚ biologists have only recently adopted the tree model of evolution to read and interpret phylogenies. One of the reasons for this is the confusion that often arises from using a tree model to describe a phylogeny (Baum‚ 2008a). Many people interpret

4.1.1 State that eukaryotic chromosomes are made of DNA and proteins 4.1.2 Define gene‚ allele and genome Gene: | Heritable factors that control specific characteristics | Allele: | One specific form of a gene (differing form other alleles by one or few bases‚ occupying the same gene locus as other alleles of that gene) | Genome: | Whole genetic information of the organism | Chromosomes are made of DNA and protein 4.1.3 Define gene mutation * Gene mutation is the change in the base

Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) is an cytosolic enzyme that participates in anaerobic glycolysis. LDH couples the reduction of pyruvate into lactic acid to the oxidation of NADH to NAD+‚ which allows glycolysis to continue to produce ATP in the absence of oxygen. LDH is a tetramer‚ a protein complex of 4 polypeptide subunits‚ composed either a subunit expressed strongly in the heart‚ H type‚or a subunit that is highly expressed in the muscle‚ M type. There are 5 isozymes of LDH composed the 2 subunit
