Question
Chapter 24, Problem 5CONQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
The differences between pattern and sequence recognition.
Introduction:
The functioning of an individual is based upon the protein encoded by the particular DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) sequences that are present in the genome of the individual. Advancements in technology have led to the development of computer programs that can analyze long sequences at a single press.

In this method, a particular polypeptide or protein is detected by an antibody that specifically recognizes a segment of its amino acid sequence. After the antibody binds to the polypeptide within a gel, a secondary antibody (which is labeled) is used to visualize the polypeptide as a dark band.For example, an antibody that recognizes α-galactosidase A couldbe used to specifically detect the amount of α-galactosidase A proteinon a gel. The enzyme α-galactosidase A is defective in individuals with Fabry disease, which shows an X-linked recessive pattern of inheritance. Amy, Nan, and Pete are siblings, and Pete has Fabry disease.
