- The technique of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is described. This is another method for examining sequence complexity within a genome. In this method, a DNA sequence, such as a particular gene sequence, can be detected within an intact chromosome by using a DNA probe that is complementary to the sequence.For example, let’s consider the β-globin gene, which isfound on human chromosome 11. A probe complementary to theβ-globin gene binds to that gene and shows up as a brightly colored spot on human chromosome 11. In this way, researchers can detectwhere the β-globin gene is located within a set of chromosomes. Becausethe β-globin gene is unique and because human cells are diploid(i.e., have two copies of each chromosome), a FISH experimentshows two bright spots per cell; the probe binds to each copy ofchromosome 11.

- A new technique for rapidly determining the nuclesome structure for regions of chromatin is called Mnase-Seq. Briefly, in MNase-Seq experiments, the chromatin is digested with Micrococcal Nuclease (MNase) and then the resulting digest is subjecting to high throughput sequencing to identify sequences digested by enzyme. See this short article for complete explanation. In the experiment below, researchers conducted an Mnase Seq experiment on a region of a chromosome in the absence (OHT-) and presence (OHT+) of a Protein X. This protein has a dramatic effect on the expression of the Igll1 gene, but no effect on Top3b nor Vpreb1 genes. Based on this information, explain what Protein X is doing to influence the Igll1 gene (limit 4-5 sentences).arrow_forwardWhat is expressed sequence tag (EST)?arrow_forwardDescribe the outcome of a chain-terminator sequencing procedure in which (a) too few primers are present or (b) an excess of primers is present.arrow_forward

However, they also want the embryos screened to ensure that the one implanted can serve as a suitable donor for their existing child.
