- In generating mutations in a bacterial gene involved in antibiotic resistance, a number of point mutations are isolated that render the bacteria sensitive to the antibiotic. You would like to sequence the gene in order to characterize the mutations, but unfortunately, your lab partner just finished the last of the lab's supply of DNA polymerase. The only things at your disposal are materials for performing a western blot, allowing you to visualize the protein encoded by the gene. How would you identify which mutations are likely to be the result of a missense mutation, which are likely to be the result of a nonsense mutation, and which are likely to be the result of a frameshift mutation?Bacteriophage lambda is as one of the routinely used molecular cloning vectors, which alsoserved as a model system for the study of bacteriophage morphogenesis, DNA replication, andgene regulation.a) With the aid of a diagram, generally narrate how a foreign gene can be inserted into alambda insertion vector and subsequently infect an Escherichia coli cell.b) You are cloning a 7.5 kb gene into a lambda gt10 vector, utilizing a restriction site whichspecifically present in the vector. State the restriction site that you can use for this purposeand suggest a screening procedure to indicate successful integration of the gene into thehost genome.Design a site directed mutagenesis experiment to convert the wild type GFP sequence into the S65T mutant. You must include the sequence of the primers, and outline of the PCR conditions you would use, and the protocols for the mutagenesis and transformation of bacteria with your plasmid containing the mutation.
- Your cloning vector has restriction recognition sites for two restriction endonucleases, EcorI and BamHI. However, the DNA to be manipulated does not have recognition sites for these two restriction endonucleases. How would you construct a recombinant DNA for the given DNA?Fill in the blank spaces by selecting the correct enzyme for each of the restriction enzyme recognition sites and and the correct sizes (kb) of the distances between these sitesCloning Genes Is a Multistep Process The following DNA sequence contains a six-base sequence that is a recognition and cutting site for a restriction enzyme. What is this sequence? Which enzyme will cut this sequence? (See Figure 13.5 for help.) 5 CCGAGGAAGCTTAC 3 3 GGCTCCTTCGAATG 5
- Which of the two restriction sites in pQE vector will be appropriate to allow full length insertion of your gene? These restriction sites will serve as linkers on both ends of your geneConsider a partial restriction digestion, in which genomic DNA is exposed to a small, limiting amount ofa restriction enzyme for a very short period of time.a. Would the resultant fragments be longer or shorteror the same size as those produced by a completedigestion?Refer to the succeeding diagram of two DNA samples (A, B) with the specific restriction enzyme(RE) recognition sites marked with arrows. A spontaneous mutation (insertion) occurred in DNAsample A and introduced an additional restriction site. 1. Design two (2) DNA probes to be used in RFLP analysis involving these two DNA samples.Draw/illustrate the region(s) in the DNA molecule which you will use as reference(homologous) sequences in the design of the probes, THAT -a. Will reveal RFLP polymorphism between the DNA samples after probedetection/visualization; andb. Will not reveal RFLP polymorphism between the DNA samples
- The plasmid cloning vector pBR322 is cleaved with the restriction endonuclease PstI. An isolated DNA fragment from a eukaryotic genome (also produced by PstI cleavage) is added to the prepared vector and ligated. The mixture of ligated DNAs is then used to transform bacteria, and plasmid-containing bacteria are selected by growth in the presence of tetracycline. The cloned DNA fragment is 1,000 bp long and has an EcoRI site 250 bp from one end. Three different recombinant plasmids are cleaved with EcoRI and analyzed by gel electrophoresis, giving the patterns shown below. What does each pattern say about the cloned DNA? Note: pBR322, the PstI and EcoRI restriction sites are about 750 bp apart. The entire plasmid with no cloned insert is 4,361 bp. Size markers in lane 4 have the number of nucleotides noted.1. Explain how the SNP changes the recognition sequence for the restriction enzyme and affects its ability to cut the DNA. Indicate which of the 2 alleles (taster or non-taster) is cut by the restriction enzyme. 2. Predict the size of the expected DNA fragments after restriction digest for the two alternative SNP sequences (the taster and the non-taster).i.) Taster allele after being cut ii.) Non-taster allele after being cutIm designing a restriction cloning experiment. My professor said that plasmid and insert DNA work best in a 1:1 ratio. If my reaction does not work the first time I perform it, how would I ensure that the cause was the difference in concentration of reagents and how would I fix it so that the I have the correct concentration? If a restriction cloning experiment does not work, how could I be certain that it was due to an incorrect ratio of plasmid:insert and how can i fix this?
