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

Alu Insertion Polymorphism at the PV92 Locus Introduction An Alu element is a short stretch of non-coding DNA found in primates. It gets its name from the single recognition site for the endonuclease Alu I‚ located near the middle of the Alu element. Alu elements are transposable DNA sequences that copy and insert themselves into new chromosome locations. They are regarded as “selfish DNA” because they do not encode protein and appear to only exist for their own replication. These Alu insertions

Lab Report An enzyme is a protein that speeds up the rates of chemical reactions. They recognize‚ bind‚ and change specific reactants. They do not change so they can catalyze the same reaction again and again. Activation energy is the amount of energy needed in order to begin a chemical reaction. A Catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without itself undergoing any permanent chemical change. Catalysts are substances or a substance that configures another substance

Bita Heydari Lab report 3 The Effects of Differentiation on Enzymatic Activity Introduction HL-60 cells are capable of undergoing differentiation to induce different cell types. HL-60 cells can undergo morphological changes‚ changes in gene expression‚ and changes in protein synthesis. In the past weeks‚ we were able to conclude that HL-60 cells treated with DMSO and HL-60 cells treated with PMA will differentiate into granulocytes and monocytes upon treatment (1). We were also able to observe

Kiley O’Toole Lab Report 3 Purpose The purpose of this lab was to uncover the number of layers of zinc atoms around a piece of galvanized iron. This was done by pouring the hydrochloric acid onto the galvanized iron‚ thus removing the zinc from the piece of metal. Laboratory Procedure 1. Measured and recorded the mass of a piece of galvanized iron using a centigram balance and a ruler 2. Measured and recorded the length and width of the galvanized iron using the ruler 3. Put the

DNA and Crime Deoxyribonucleic Acid - the fingerprint of life also know as DNA was first mapped out in the early 1950’s by British biophysicist‚ Francis Harry Compton Crick and American biochemist James Dewey Watson. They determined the three-dimensional structure of DNA‚ the substance that passes on the genetic characteristics from one generation to the next. DNA is found in the chromosomes in the nucleus of a cell. "Every family line has it’s own unique pattern of restriction-enzyme DNA

Running Head: DNA Testing DNA Testing CRJ 311 Forensics Timothy Knox November 4‚ 2012 Thesis DNA testing has become a major part of forensic science. It helps in so many areas of life. Catching criminals‚ freeing the innocent‚ determining paternity of children‚ amongst other things‚ are just a few ways DNA testing helps. It has a few cons like the financial burden of it. But in the end it is worth it. Without DNA there would be many offenders roaming the streets‚ while hundreds of innocents
