General DNA Isolation ProceduresLyse Cells
• Detergent dissolves cell membrane and denatures protein.• EDTA chelates divalent cations required by nucleases.
• Proteinase K degrades proteins.
Organic Extraction• Uses
phenol:chloroform:isoamyl alcohol
• Denatures and removes proteins
•Toxic Chemicals!!
Nonorganic Extraction•Salt precipitation of protein
• DNA precipitation
Solid Phase Extraction• Apply sample
• Wash• Elute DNA
• Best method!
(1 X 107 cells) X (6 pg DNA/cell) X 80% yield= 48 mg DNA!!!

Looking at DNA: Nucleic Acid Analysis DNA (or RNA) is characterized using several
different methods for assessing quantity, quality, and molecular size. UV spectrophotometry Agarose gel electrophoresis Colorimetric blotting

How Much DNA Do You Have? Absorbance from UV Spectrophotometry DNA and RNA absorb maximally at a
wavelength of 260 nm. Proteins absorb at 280 nm. Background scatter absorbs at 320 nm. Concentration of DNA =
(A260 – A320) X dilution factor X 50 µg/mL Concentration of RNA =
(A260-A320) X dilution factor X 40 µg/mL

Looking At DNA: Electrophoresis Nucleic acids are separated based on size and
charge. DNA molecules migrate in an electrical field Employs a sieve-like matrix (THINK JELLO!)
and an electrical field. DNA is negatively charged and migrates
towards the positively charged anode.
![Page 19: Pan, Cerberus, and the Centaurs: Genetic Engineering](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812c34550346895d90ba0a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Gel ElectrophoresisElectrophoresis is the movement of molecules
by an electric current.
Nucleic acid moves from a negative to a positive pole.
Nucleic acid has a net negative charge, they RUN TO RED
![Page 20: Pan, Cerberus, and the Centaurs: Genetic Engineering](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812c34550346895d90ba0a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Principles of Gel Electrophoresis The gel itself is composed of either agarose or
polyacrylamide Agarose is a polysaccharide extracted from
seaweed Polyacrylamide is a cross-linked polymer of
acrylamide. Acrylamide is a potent neurotoxin and should be
handled with care!
![Page 21: Pan, Cerberus, and the Centaurs: Genetic Engineering](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812c34550346895d90ba0a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Restriction Enzyme Mapping Digest DNA with a restriction enzyme. Resolve the fragments by gel electrophoresis. The number of bands indicates the number of
restriction sites. The size of the bands indicates the distance
between restriction sites.

Remember Eukaryotic Genes Contain Introns: Reverse Transcription of RNA to cDNA
What about primers?Remember poly A tail?
Primers are long string of Ts!
![Page 42: Pan, Cerberus, and the Centaurs: Genetic Engineering](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812c34550346895d90ba0a/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
What Are Cloned Genes Good For Anyway? Provide large quantities of DNA for analysis
Mapping, sequencing studies Identification, disease diagnosis
Provide source of specific gene product for commercial use Production of medically important molecules
Provide source of specific genes for creation of transgenic animals
IS THERE A BETTER WAY TO DO SOME OF THIS? PCR and Cary Mullis
![Page 43: Pan, Cerberus, and the Centaurs: Genetic Engineering](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812c34550346895d90ba0a/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Cary Mullis and the Nobel Prize: The Basics Knew that you could expose template DNA by
boiling ds DNA to produce ss DNA Knew that you could use primers to initiate
DNA synthesis Knew that a cheap, commercial enzyme was
available (Klenow fragment of E. coli DNA polymerase)
![Page 44: Pan, Cerberus, and the Centaurs: Genetic Engineering](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812c34550346895d90ba0a/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Cary Mullis and PCR Wanted a way to generate large
amounts of DNA from a single copy
Initially used the “3 graduate student” method Denaturing (unwinding) DNA Annealing (hybridizing) primers Extending (copying) DNA
![Page 45: Pan, Cerberus, and the Centaurs: Genetic Engineering](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812c34550346895d90ba0a/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
THREE STEPS OF PCR Denaturation of target (template)
Usually 95oC Annealing of primers
Temperature of annealing is dependent on the G+C content
May be high (no mismatch allowed) or low (allows some mismatch) “stringency”
Extension (synthesis) of new strand
![Page 46: Pan, Cerberus, and the Centaurs: Genetic Engineering](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812c34550346895d90ba0a/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

Automation of PCR PCR requires repeated temperature changes. The thermal cycler changes temperatures in a
block or chamber holding the samples. Thermostable (heat stable) polymerases are
used to withstand the repeated high denaturation temperatures.
![Page 49: Pan, Cerberus, and the Centaurs: Genetic Engineering](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032708/56812c34550346895d90ba0a/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)

What is DNA Sequencing? DNA sequencing is the ability to determine
nucleotide sequences of DNA molecules.

Cycle Sequencing Cycle sequencing is chain termination
sequencing performed in a thermal cycler. Cycle sequencing requires a heat-stable DNA
polymerase.

Fluorescent Dyes Fluorescent dyes are multi-cyclic molecules
that absorb and emit fluorescent light at specific wavelengths.
Examples are fluorescein and rhodamine derivatives.
For sequencing applications, these molecules can be covalently attached to nucleotides.

Dye Terminator Sequencing A distinct dye or “color” is used for each of
the four ddNTP. Since the terminating nucleotides can be
distinguished by color, all four reactions can be performed in a single tube.
ACGT
The fragments are distinguished by size and “color.”
