Question
Chapter 5, Problem 14P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
A method for isolating a DNA fragment that is adjacent in the genome to a previously isolated DNA fragment is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid, is a biological macromolecule. DNA contains double helical strands along with the complementary base pairs. The four complementary bases of DNA are adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G) and cytosine (C).

. A closed circular supercoiled DNA is relaxed by treatment with
topoisomerase. No matter how much enzyme is used, or how long
the experiment is run, the experimenter always finds a gel elec-
trophoresis pattern indicating some DNA with one, two, and three
superhelical turns in addition to the relaxed (nicked) circle (see fig-
ure). Suggest an explanation for this observation.

As this is a non-directional cloning, recombinant plasmids can contain an insert ligated into the vector in two different orientations. Provide two diagrams to illustrate the two potential recombinant plasmids, with the inserts ligated in opposite orientations. Include all RE sites and distances between sites on the diagram.

Pancreatic deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) is a nuclease that makes single-strand nicks on double-stranded DNA. It has been observed that treatment of nucleosomal core particles with DNase I yields a peculiar result. When DNA from such a digestion is electrophoresed under denaturing conditions, the single-stranded fragments are observed to occur in a regular periodicity of about 10 bases. Suggest an explanation of this result in terms of the structure of the nucleo- some.arrow_forward
