Q

how to calculate avg. fregment length

A
  • 4^n where n is # of bases in recognition site
17
Q

2 steps to cloning fragments of DNA

A
  1. insert DNA fragments into cloning vectors to make recombinant DNA molecules
  2. Transport recombinant Dna into living cell to be copied
18
Q

2 steps to creating recombinant DNA molecules with plasmid vectors

A
  1. digestion of the vector +human genomic DNA with some restriction enzymes results in complementary stick ends (ligase seals)
  2. Host cells take up and amplify recombo DNA (only media with ampicillin will grow)
19
Q

What does sanger sequence use to make DNA

A

DNA polymerase

20
Q

single nucleotide polymorphism

A

1 base pair changes ( Sickle cell anemia)

21
Q

deletion-insertion polymorphism

A

short/ deletion of base pairs

22
Q

simple sequence repeats

A

1-10 base pairs repeated 10-15 times

23
Q

copy number variants

A

large blocks of duplication/deletion

24
Q

polymerase chain reaction

A

method of making many copies of a target DNA

25
Steps of PCR (3 steps and temp)
1. denaturing- @95 C, separates dsDNA to ssDNA 2. Annealing- 50-70 C, ssDNA primers base pair with specific sequences of target DNA 3. Extension- 72C, extends primers from 5' to 3'
26
T/F- mitochondrial DNA pass maternally
T
27
Procedure for injecting transgender
- fertalized eggs harvested - transgene injected into eggs - if transgender integrated after cell division, the transgender will be in some cells and not others
28
inactivated vaccines
-prepared from killed samples of bacteria + viruses
29
Attenuated Vacines
-weakend or live pathogen which can't reproduce
30
subunit viruses
- cloned surface proteins, stems immune system
31
Recomboinant retroviral genome
integrates into genome, treats SCID
32
AAV vector
Doesn't integrate into genome, treats blindness
