Summary Introduction

To explain: The way in which sgRNA is different from certain components of the bacterial defense system.

Introduction: CRISPR-Cas system is a system used by the bacterial defense mechanism. However, this system can be used to modify the genes. This method of using a CRISPR-Cas system to alter the genes in an organism is known as CRISPR-Cas technology. sgRNA stands for “single guide RNA”. It is used in CRISPR-Cas technology. sgRNA is produced in such a way that it is complementary to the target gene. Therefore, it becomes easy for the researchers to locate the target gene from the complete DNA strand.

E22. The method of Northern blotting is used to determine the amount and size of a particular RNA transcribed in a given cell type. Alternative splicing (discussed in Chapter 12) produces mRNAs of different lengths from the same gene. The Northern blot shown here was made using a DNA probe that is complementary to the MRNA encoded by a particular gene. The mRNA in lanes 1 through 4 was isolated from different cell types, and equal amounts of total cellular MRNA were added to each lane. 2 3 4 Lane 1: MRNA isolated from nerve cells Lane 2: MRNA isolated from kidney cells Lane 3: MRNA isolated from spleen cells Lane 4: MRNA isolated from muscle cells Explain these results. | |
