Chapter 9, Problem 31PDQ

Summary Introduction

To review:

The protocol for studying and contrasting the structure of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) isolated from two new strains of viruses.

Introduction:

DNA samples are isolated to analyze the genome structure of organisms and the similarity level they have from the other species. Defined protocol is followed in which sequencing of the genome remains the first step such that to obtain the genome sequence of an organism, which can be subjected to similarity check among other organisms. DNA extraction is the process carried out by following standardized protocol corresponding to the sample from which DNA is being isolated as in this case the subject sample is viruses. The stable integrated DNA obtained is used forvarious applications like studying structural characteristic, genetic experiments, hereditaryresemblance and carrying medicinal diagnostics.
