Concept explainers

Genome annotation

The technique of linking biological information to genome sequences is termed genome annotation. Gene annotation is the method of identifying gene locations and coding sections. It helps us understand what these genes are doing in the body through establishing structural characteristics and linking them to the actions of various proteins.

Our lives are surrounded byBig Data. Enormous quantitiesof personal informationare stored on private and public databases,revealing our purchasing preferences,search engine histories, social contacts,and even GPS locations.Perhaps the most personal of all BigData entries are genome sequences.Tens of thousands of individuals arenow donating DNA for whole-genomesequencing—by both private genesequencingcompanies and public researchprojects.

. The double-stranded circular DNA molecule thatforms the genome of the SV40 tumor virus can be denatured into single-stranded DNA molecules. Becausethe base composition of the two strands differs, thestrands can be separated on the basis of their densityinto two strands designated W(atson) and C(rick). When each of the purified preparations of the single strands was mixed with mRNA from cells infectedwith the virus, hybrids were formed between the RNAand DNA. Closer analysis of these hybridizationsshowed that RNAs that hybridized with the W preparation were different from RNAs that hybridized withthe C preparation. What does this tell you about thetranscription templates for the different classes ofRNAs?
