experiment would be how the Restriction Endonucleases cleave the strands of DNA. For this experiment‚ pBR322 was the specimen to use. Restriction Endonucleases work by cleaving the sugar phosphate backbone of specific DNA sites. Restriction enzymes that have been isolated from bacteria have a defensive role. This idea is illustrated when an attacking foreign cell DNA is trying to alter the bacteria; restriction enzymes cleave the DNA rendering it inert. The second part of the experiment deals with Gel

Extract DNA from Anything Living |[pic] | |Introduction: [pic] Since DNA is the blueprint for life‚ everything living contains DNA. DNA isolation is one of the most basic and essential techniques in the study of DNA. The extraction of DNA from cells and its purification are of primary importance to the field of biotechnology and forensics. Extraction and purification of DNA are the first steps in the analysis and manipulation of DNA that allow scientists to detect genetic disorders‚ produce DNA fingerprints

1. How DNA replication takes place? DNA replication occurs within the interphase‚ In this phase two strands of DNA serve as templates for new DNA strands that are forming. As the DNA separates a replication bubble is formed‚ this is where two replication forks are formed that grow in two directions. DNA polymerase creates new strands as nucleotides are added individually to each strand. As each nucleotide pairs itself to the complimentary nucleotide on the opposite strand‚ new DNA molecules are formed

The two navy officers shown at left are identical twins. Why do you think identical twins look so similar? Identical twins look so similar because identical twins have the same genetic makeup‚ meaning‚ the same DNA (same nitrogenous bases). This is because

DNA extraction in Watermelon and Bananas Abstract During this experiment the researcher investigated the differing amounts of DNA present in bananas and watermelon. So that the researcher could do this‚ and accurately record the amounts‚ the researcher liquefied the fruits in a blender‚ added water and salt to them‚ and the added laundry detergent before using contact solution as an enzyme. Rubbing alcohol was then poured into the mixture and the DNA was extracted and

AIM : To find refractive index of any liquid (water) using a concave mirror. APPARATUS: A concave spherical mirror‚ water‚ an optical needle‚ a clamp stand‚ one meter scale‚ plumb line‚ etc. THEORY: If the tip of object needle 0 be at the centre of curvature C‚ tip of image will exactly coincide with it. (Principle axis is verticle to the plane). When water is filled in concave mirror‚ object needle is again replaced to move to C’ to remove parallax between tips of object needle and its image. A

their 1953 Nature publication‚ Watson and Crick announced their landmark discovery: DNA exists in the form of a right handed‚ three-dimensional double helix. They described their DNA model as two DNA strands connected by hydrogen bonds between complementary bases. Adenine bases are always paired with thymines‚ and cytosines are always paired with guanines. Watson and Crick identified the anti-parallel configuration of DNA strands; each 5’ end of one strand is paired with the 3’ end of its complementary

Date: 09/21/2012 Result The purpose of the experiment is to measure the amount of DNA extracted from a strawberry. In the experiment‚ we measured the absorbance of different concentrations of Methylene Blue. The data collected by our group is presented on Figure 1 and the average absorbance measured by whole class is stated on Figure 2. Table 3 shows the measurement on the amount of strawberry DNA extracted. In Figure 1 and Figure 2‚ the data will be presented Standard Curve Graph. The
