Chapter 21.2, Problem 2CC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The information that is provided regarding gene expression if a fluorescent spot appears on a microarray.
Introduction: Genome is defined as the complete genetic material that is present in an organism. It consists of the coding as well as the non-coding parts of DNA. Genomics is the study of the genome. DNA microarray is a technique to detect the gene expression of multiple genes at the same time.

- Within the subject of genomics, genetic engineering and gene therapy are related. What unites them and sets them apart?arrow_forwardGive the similarities and differences of Genomics from Bioinformatics, and Proteomics from Transcriptomics and from Metabolomics.arrow_forwardThe technique of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is described. This is another method for examining sequence complexity within a genome. In this method, a DNA sequence, such as a particular gene sequence, can be detected within an intact chromosome by using a DNA probe that is complementary to the sequence.For example, let’s consider the β-globin gene, which isfound on human chromosome 11. A probe complementary to theβ-globin gene binds to that gene and shows up as a brightly colored spot on human chromosome 11. In this way, researchers can detectwhere the β-globin gene is located within a set of chromosomes. Becausethe β-globin gene is unique and because human cells are diploid(i.e., have two copies of each chromosome), a FISH experimentshows two bright spots per cell; the probe binds to each copy ofchromosome 11.
