Question
Chapter 9, Problem 12P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
An explanation regarding the termination of reaction in which a restriction enzyme cleaves DNA by the addition of EDTA is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The restriction enzymes are also called as restriction endonucleases. The restriction endonucleases are used for the hydrolysis of the phosphodiester backbone present on the DNA sequence. These restriction enzymes are BamHI obtained from bacillus amyloliquifaciens, SmaI obtained from Serratia marcescens and many others.

Central Dogma of Molecular Biology from DNA to RNA to Protein, discussing the principles underlying the transfer of information in a biologic system and its regulation.
However, recent research seems to challenge certain aspects of Crick’s Central Dogma.
Does the Central Dogma still stand today? If not, can you find an example for a type of information transfer that is not explicitly covered by the Central Dogma (or even violates it)?
RNA polymerase from E. coli (core enzyme alone) has all of the following properties except:
a)requires all four ribonucleoside triphosphates and a DNA template.
b)can extend an RNA chain and initiate a new chain.
c)recognizes specific start signals in DNA.
d)produces an RNA polymer that begins with a 5'-triphosphate.
e)is required for the synthesis of mRNA, rRNA, and tRNA in E. coli.
Remember remove the introns! All introns start with GT and end with AG.

- Preparing plasmid DNA (double stranded, circular) for Sanger sequencing involves annealing a complementary, single-stranded oligonucleotide DNA primer to one strand of the plasmid template. This is routinely accomplished by heating the plasmid DNA and primer to 90°C and then slowly bringing the temperature down to 25°C. Why does this protocol work? What enzyme is used and what other components are required in the sequencing reaction? How does the Sanger method determine the sequence?arrow_forwardINSTRUCTION: Given the DNA sequence below, provide the answers to the following items. a. complimentary DNA strand 1.)

- Restriction enzymes are used in laboratory manipulations to cut DNA; many of these enzymes can be inactivated by incubating them at 80°C for 30 minutes. Why would this incubation inactivate the enzyme? Why do enzymes not simply operate better at higher temperatures, as other catalysts do?arrow_forwardPLEASE ANSWER WHY? Some substitution mutation result in a malfunctioning protein but others do not. Why is this? arrow_forwardTrue or False?
