The sequence 5' GCCTAATGCGTTCATAATGGCGTTTGCCACGGACGTAAAGTCGT 3' represents 50% of a PCR product which is cloned into a 1.5 kb plasmid for bacterial expression. What would the agarose gel look like, including a lane for markers, and where would the following pieces of DNA run: 1. the PCR insert 2. the empty uncut plasmid 3. the empty plasmid cut with a single restriction enzyme 4. the cloned plasmid containing the insert
For the following short sequence of double stranded DNA, design primers (just ~ 3-4 bases) and show 2 copy cycles of PCR (refer to figure 13.25) for the amplification of this sequence of DNA (so that you have 4 double stranded DNA). 5’- GGTATTGGCTACTTACTGGCATCG- 3’ 3’- CCATAACCGATGAATGACCGTAGC- 5’
After restriction enzymes cut, they contain unpaired bases. Type II restriction enzymes leave ends that may be 5' overhanging, 3' overhanging, or blunt. In all cases each end is left with a 3' OH and a 5' phosphate. All blunt ends, and any complementary overhanging ends may be re-ligated with T4 DNA ligase, as long as at least one 5'- phosphate is present. In the tables below G^AATTC means that the end after cutting with enzyme will be: -----G 3' -----CTTAA 5' GTGCA^C means that the end will be: -----GTGCA 3' -----C 5' Which RE’s from table below have a 5’ overhang?

Watch the demonstration video on nucleic acid quantification on the NanoDrop spectrophotometer: https://cutt.ly/bio150dnaquantification Note: the video is entitled RNA but the method is identical for DNA quantification. 1. Protocols in isolating DNA often involve the use of two kinds of ethanol, 100% ethanol and 70% ethanol, in succession. What happens during these steps and why are they essential?2. Spectrophotometric detection of nucleic acids require readings at wavelengths of 260nm, and 280nm. What is the significance of these wavelengths?
Examine the DNA fragment sequence below. Your job is to design primers for PCR that would be able to amplify this DNA fragment. Design the primers so that they are 7 bases in length. Don’t forget to indicate direction (polarity) of the primers. Also describe where the primer would bind (i.e. top or bottom strand, left or right side of the DNA strand). Please organize your response so that each primer, and associated information, is separated by at least one blank line 5’ - TCCACTTGCTGTGTAGCTAAATCATATAACAG3’ - AGGTGAACGACACATCGATTTAGTATATTGAC
