Q

Chargaffs rule

A

Applicable for double stranded dna
A pairs with T
G paira with C
Or

31
Moat commonly user restriction enzyme in various technologies
Type 2 enzymes
32
Fish technology (flurescnese in aitu hybridization)
MoleculR cytogenetic technique which uses flouriscent probe which is complementary to the apecefic dna sequence
33
Types of probes in fish techniques
Centromere probe Telomere probe Whole chromosome probe Locus probe-gene detection and localization,gene amplification,deletion,translocation
34

37
Application of FISH
1)Karyotyping-aneuploidy(trisomy,deletion of whole chromosome) Chronosomal aberration- deltion,duplication,translocation 2)developmental biology-gene expression profiling in embryonic tissue
38
Microaray
..
39
DNA sequencing by sanger
Di deoxynucleotide chain termination method
40
Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP)
Based on variation of the restriction site in an individual DNA which may result from polymorphism or mutation
41
Polymorphism
Inherent variablity in the sequence of DNA Two types 1)SNP single nucleotide poly 2)VNTR variable nr of tantem repeat-minisatelikte and micro satelite
42
RFLP uses
Disease diagnosis forensic investigations Paternity dispute
43
Polymerase chain reaction
Kary mullis 1984 | Target and flanking sequence
44
Components required for pcr
``` Target dna Dntps(all 4 varuety) Dna polymerase(thermostable) Pair of primer(20-30nucleotide) Magnesium Buffer ```
45
Cycle of pcr
1) Denaturation-94degree celsius for 10 minutes 2) annealing:45 degree celsius for 4 minutes 3) elongation:72 degr celcaius variable time depenfing on the length
46
Application of pcr
In medicine- detection of bacteria and virus Early detection of cancer Monitor cancer chemotherapy In forensic and legal medicine-parentage dispute Criminal case Evolutional study
47
Real time pcr(qpcr)
``` Quantitative pcr Types of real timed reporters 1) SYBR green 2)Taq Mann 3)Molecular Beacons ```
