    DNA SPOOLING ISOLATION OF DNA FROM ONION INTRODUCTION This project will demonstrate several basic steps required for isolation of chromosomal DNA from cells. To extract the chromosomal DNA‚ both the cell membrane and the nuclear membrane must be broken open. This is accomplished by disrupting the membranes with a solution of detergent and salt‚creating a cell homogenate. Once the DNA is released from the nucleus‚ it must be protected from nucleases‚ enzymes which will degrade the DNA. Keeping

    RNA uses uracil instead of the thymine in DNA. DNA replicates itself and RNA is synthesized from RNA on an as-needed basis. Their stability and reaction is also different. DNA is more stable and less reactive than RNA because of the deoxyribose sugar’s C-H bonds. It is stable in alkaline conditions; DNA has smaller grooves‚ which makes it harder for enzymes to “attack.” RNA is more reactive because of the ribose sugar’s C-OH‚ hydroxyl‚ bonds. Unlike DNA‚ it is not stable in alkaline conditions and
