Introduction:
Genes are made up of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Genes are generally described as the basic, functional, and physical unit of life. Genes do not code for the proteins but they instruct the other molecules to synthesize the proteins. Proteins are the building blocks of the body, made by the

If you have access to the necessary computer software, make asequence file and analyze it in the following ways: What is thetranslated sequence in all three reading frames? What is the longest open reading frame? Is the sequence homologous to any known sequences? If so, does this provide any clues about the function of the sequence?
Identify the MRNA sequence that encodes the protein
Design primers that will allow them to amplify the gene sequence using PCR.

Create cDNA using reverse transcription with primers complementary to linkers. Attach linkers to the ends of the RNAs. Perform next-generation DNA sequencing. Isolate RNA from cells or tissues of interest. Fragment the RNAs.arrow_forwardFollow these directions to access the entries for PTGS1 and PTGS2 in the “Gene” database at the NCBI Website:A. First, go to the NCBI homepage using the link on the lab webpage, or by going to: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov Select “Gene” from the database pulldown menu. Type “PTGS” in the search box, then click “Go.” Scan the results for the “Homo sapiens” entries. There should be one called “PTGS1” and one called “PTGS2.” Select each entry by clicking on its name, then read the paragraph under the “Summary” section for each entry. The drug Celebrex selectively inhibits PTGS2 while aspirin and other NSAID’s inhibit both PTGS1 and PTGS2 in the same way. Why do you think researchers wanted to discover a selective inhibitor to PTGS2? 2. Describe how studying 3-D structures of PTGS1 and PTGS2 could help researchers design a drug that binds to PTGS1, but not to PTGS2.arrow_forwardAnnotation involves identifying genes and gene-regulatory sequences in a genome.
