- A real-time polymerase chain reaction is a laboratory technique of molecular biology based on the polymerase chain reaction. This technique detects the fluorescence produced by reporter molecules like SYBR® Green dye or TaqMan® probe during the DNA amplification reaction. Compare and contrast between SYBR® Green and TaqMan® probe with illustrations.arrow_forwardShown below are several next-generation sequencing reads from a sample you have. Which of the following is the most likely candidate for the original linear piece of DNA present in the sample that created the sequence reads shown below? 5' GGGCATTA 3' 5' TACGAACA 3' 5' ATACCGGGC 3' 5' ACCGTACG 3' 5' AACATACC 3' Question 4 options: 5' ATTAACCGTACGAACATACCGGGC 3' 5' GGGCATTATACGAACAATACCGGGC 3' 5' ACCGGGCATTAACCGTACGAACAT 3' 5' AACATACCGGGCATTAACCGTACG 3' 5' GGCATTAACCGTACGAACATACCG 3' 5' ACCGTACGAACATACCGGGCATTA 3'arrow_forwardWhat are the consequences for a DNA sequencing reaction if the ratio of dideoxyribonucleoside triphosphates to deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates is increased?

- Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion to all parts Maxim-Gilbert and Sanger Sequencing are two different methods used to sequence DNA. Describe the general techniques of Maxim-Gilbert and Sanger DNA Sequencing. List the advantages and disadvantages of each.arrow_forwardFour E. coli strains of genotype a+ b- are labeled 1, 2, 3, and 4. Four strains of genotype a- b+ are labeled 5, 6, 7, and 8. The two genotypes are mixed in all possible combinations and (after incubation) are plated to determine the frequency of a+ b+ recombinants. The following results are obtained, where M = many recombinants, L = low numbers of recombinants, and 0 = no recombinants:On the basis of these results, assign a sex type (either Hfr, F+, or F-) to each strain.arrow_forwardYou wish to align a 300 bp nucleotide sequence to a genome. Which of the following pairwise sequence alignment algorithms is BEST suited for this task? Global alignment or Local alignment? Please explain or elaborate why you chose this alignment algorithm.arrow_forward
- If you were to isolate genomic DNA from two people and perform restriction enzyme digestion followed by agarose gel electrophoresis, would this be an effective way to distinguish one person from the other? Explain. If not, what is another technique you might use to distinguish the two people?arrow_forwardBriefly describe the function of each of the following components of the DNA extraction protocol. Please consult the practical manual. (Students taking the online alternative, derive these steps from the practical manual and BI101JC_Biochemistry Practical DNA PROTEIN, or from the Connect Virtual Lab on DNA Extraction). i. Heat ii. Protease Solution (protein-digesting enzymes in meat tenderizer) iii. Detergent (emulsifier) iv. Salt v. Ethanolarrow_forwardDescribe the possible outcome of a PCR experiment in which (a) there is a single-stranded break in the target DNA sequence, which is present in only one copy in the starting sample, and (b) there is a doublestranded break in the target DNA sequence, which is present in only one copy in the starting sample.arrow_forward
- Write the sequences of the two 12-residue primers that could be used to amplify the following DNA segment by PCR.arrow_forwardYou are studying a new plasmid, and you digest the plasmid with three restriction enzymes: Eco RI (E), HindlII (H), and Xbal (X). You digest the plasmid DNA with each of the following combinations of enzymes and observe the results on an agarose gel. You are provided a partial plasmid map as shown below to the right. E H E+H E+X H+X Kb +4.3 +2.8 +2.5 - +2.0 -- -1.8 -1.5 12 +1.0 +0.8 +0.5 - a. What is the size of this plasmid in base pairs? b. What is the distance in base pairs between E1 and H? c. What is the distance in base pairs between E1 and X? d. What is the distance in base pairs between E2 and H? e. What is the distance in base pairs between E2 and X?arrow_forwardThe polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is used by scientists to amplify DNA, particularly when the quantity of DNA is very small, mixed, or contaminated with other organisms. Explain (with words) the how PCR works using a diagram to help illustrate this (show a minimum of three cycles to illustrate your point).arrow_forward
