Restriction Enzymes
• Restriction enzymes are DNases (nucleases) found in bacteria that recognize specific DNA sequences as 4mers,6mers or 8mers and make double stranded breaks in DNA .
• This enables cutting of genome in specific ways to generate restriction site maps and the development of approaches for pasting pieces of DNA together in specific ways.

DNA Hybridization
• DNA hybridization is the process whereby complementary strand of DNA anneals (to form a double helix) with the single stranded DNA
• Hybridization can be measured by labeling the “complementary strand” either with 32P nucleotides or fluorescent probes .
• There is also DNA-RNA hybridization
![Page 8: System The Code For Life Organism Organ Tissues Cell. Nucleus](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649dff5503460f94ae84e3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Southern Blotting
• Southern Blotting enables identification of specific DNA sequences (gene
fragments) from among the total sequence of DNA
Cut DNA with restriction enzymes
Separate fragments on agarose or acrylamide gels
Transfer the separated DNA from gel on to nitrocellulose paper
Hybridize with a labeled DNA or RNA of interest ( e.g., 32P labeled DNA) followed by autoradiography or phosphoimaging for detection
![Page 9: System The Code For Life Organism Organ Tissues Cell. Nucleus](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649dff5503460f94ae84e3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Northern Blotting• Northern Blotting is where RNA is blotted and then probed labeled DNA (cDNA) synthesized from the mRNA isolated from the cell
• Enables identification and quantification of specific mRNAs from among the vast
population of RNAs in the cell
![Page 10: System The Code For Life Organism Organ Tissues Cell. Nucleus](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649dff5503460f94ae84e3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
DNA cloning
• DNA cloning enables specific pieces of genome to be inserted into bacteria as plasmid or phage lambda vectors and grown in large quantity.
• The first step is to generate a library of bacteria with inserted DNA fragments. This could either be a genomic(DNA)or a cDNA (mRNA) library
![Page 11: System The Code For Life Organism Organ Tissues Cell. Nucleus](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649dff5503460f94ae84e3/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Replica plating and in situ hybridization
• Techniques used to identify a bacterial colony that contains the gene (DNA sequence)
of interest. The isolated colony can be grown up in large quantities.
Replica plating and in situ hybridization
CsCl centrifugation for separation of plamid DNA from chromosomal DNA
![Page 12: System The Code For Life Organism Organ Tissues Cell. Nucleus](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649dff5503460f94ae84e3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
cDNA libraries
• They are generated to isolate particular genes of interest or to identify a gene based on the protein expression of that gene cloned in the bacterial cell
• The latter procedure is called “reverse genetics” whereby the protein product is used to identify the gene followed by DNA sequencing
![Page 13: System The Code For Life Organism Organ Tissues Cell. Nucleus](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649dff5503460f94ae84e3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
DNA sequencing
• Sanger’s dideoxy method DNA to be sequenced is mixed with each of 4 ddNTPS (chain terminators) in separate reactions for DNA synthesis and later separation of the products by electrophoresis
• Can now be done automatically via sequencing machines that work with different flurochromes attached to each of dideoxy nucleotides
• To determine the sequence of a gene of many kilobases overlapping DNA fragments of 400-800 bp must be sequenced
![Page 14: System The Code For Life Organism Organ Tissues Cell. Nucleus](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649dff5503460f94ae84e3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Protein expression vectors
• These are specially designed plasmid
vectors for fusion protein expression
to isolate large quantities of protein of
interest for antibody production or
other studies of purified protein.
• The proteins are produced as fusion
proteins of the cDNA gene coding
sequence ligated to a protein
expression marker or reporter protein
e.g. beta-galactosidase
• They can also be used as a major tool
in cell biology to study the expression
of proteins in cells following DNA
transfection
![Page 15: System The Code For Life Organism Organ Tissues Cell. Nucleus](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649dff5503460f94ae84e3/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
DNA transfection and Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
• DNA transfection is used to track the properties of individual proteins in a cell
Construct a plasmid expression system that contains the protein of interest fused with a reporter gene such as a beta- galactosidase or a short peptide sequence such as HA 9 mer peptide or FLAG epitope for antibody localization with anti HA or anti FLAG or fluorescent localization in living cells with GFP-constructs (GFP-actin)
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)Is used as an alternative to cloningfor purifying a particular DNA (genesequence
It enables the production of microgramquantities of the DNA sequence of interest in the test tube
Provides an alternative for preparing DNA probes to screen genomic or cDNA libraryfor clones encoding a protein of interest
![Page 16: System The Code For Life Organism Organ Tissues Cell. Nucleus](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649dff5503460f94ae84e3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
DNA Microarrays and chips
• Enable via fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to measure expression of 1000’s of genes on each array/ chip.
Yeast genome microarray: The array is hybridized to cDNA labeled with a green fluorescent dye prepared from cells grown in glucose and with red labeled cDNA from cells grown in ethanol. Spots were detected with a scanning confocal microscope

Antibody production
• Polyclonal antibodies are
generated by injecting
antigen into an animal and
purifying the antibody
titer from blood
• Monoclonal antibody
technique enables to obtain
a single clone of cells that
recognizes one epitope
( usually ~ 9 a.a.) of the
total protein
Monoclonal antibody production

Genetic Engineering
• Introduction of exogenous genes ( mutant or normal) in to normal cells or organisms to study gene expression
• Used to study the role of the protein coded by the gene in the cell/organism function or for engineering gene expression for improving food production or reducing the destrcutive damage of human diseases
![Page 19: System The Code For Life Organism Organ Tissues Cell. Nucleus](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649dff5503460f94ae84e3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Site Directed Mutagenesis
• Alterations in nucleotides (substitutions or deletions) in vitro at known (directed) sites to create “mutant genes”
• These mutant genes can be transfected into cells as previously discussed and enables study of gene function at the individual cell level. The transfected genes are also called “transgenes”
![Page 20: System The Code For Life Organism Organ Tissues Cell. Nucleus](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649dff5503460f94ae84e3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Production of transgenic mouse
Inject mutant gene in to one of the pronuclei of the fertilized mouse oocyte
Transfer oocyte to surrogate mother. 10-30% of offspring contain the transgene in equal amounts in all tissues
![Page 21: System The Code For Life Organism Organ Tissues Cell. Nucleus](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649dff5503460f94ae84e3/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Gene Knockout or “replacement”
• Form of trangenics
• Occurs following homologous recombination of the transgene at the site of the endogenous gene
• Occurs readily in yeast cells but in mammalian cells the rate of recombination is very slow and hence a double selection marker approach is adopted where the first marker e.g. neomycin resistance selects for all cells with homologous recombination while the second marker allows growth of only those cells that carried out homologous recombination
![Page 22: System The Code For Life Organism Organ Tissues Cell. Nucleus](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649dff5503460f94ae84e3/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Knockout protocol
ES cells are isolated from the inner blastocyst and culture
ES cells are tranfected with the gene of interest
ES cells successfully transfected via homologous recombination are selected and grown in culture and injected into a host blastocyst. Chimeras develop which contain ES cells from both the transfected and the host cells.
Enables direct study of gene function in an intact organism

Gene Replacement/therapy
• Replace an abnormal gene with a normal one at a very early stage of development
• It has the potential for curing or alleviating the symptoms of a wide variety of human diseases, e.g.,Parkinson’s disease
