Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)
• a direct method of making many copies of a DNA sequence
• exponential increase because each cycle doubles the number of DNA molecules
• useful in forensics, medical diagnosis and genetic research because a small amount of DNA can be amplified

Taq polymerase
• from Thermus aquaticus (type of bacteria that live in hot springs)
• is not denatured at the high temperatures needed in PCR
• works optimally at 72ºC

Gel Electrophoresis
![Page 7: DNA Sequencing 8.2. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) a direct method of making many copies of a DNA sequence exponential increase because each cycle doubles.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062504/5a4d1b617f8b9ab0599adb5d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Gel Electrophoresis
• a method of separating molecules based on size
• DNA migrates through the gel towards a positive electrode
• smaller fragments move faster through the gel, causing separation by size
• DNA fragments can be seen by using a stain such as ethidium bromide

DNA Sequencing
• chain termination method (Sanger dideoxy method) was developed in the 1970s by Frederick Sanger
• Human Genome Project used 2 methods of sequencing, both involving the Sanger method

So you’ve sequenced it…
…what can you do with the data?
• structural genomics• functional genomics• bioinformatics
![Page 16: DNA Sequencing 8.2. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) a direct method of making many copies of a DNA sequence exponential increase because each cycle doubles.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062504/5a4d1b617f8b9ab0599adb5d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Interesting findings…
• can sequence a gene and then use computer to find similar sequences in the same genome or in other genomes
• have discovered many genes of unknown function
• unexpected degree of similarity between different organisms (e.g., yeast & humans)

$1000 Genome Initiative• it currently takes about 8
days and $10 000 to sequence the human genome
• the race is on to be able to sequence the genome for less than $1000
• nanopore sequencing

DNA Microarray
• allows scientists to pinpoint the functions of specific genes
• the expression of thousands of genes in a particular cell can be identified simulaneously

Microarray
• microarray or gene chip can hold from 10 to 2.1 million DNA samples (probes)
• could be used to compare a “normal” cell with a cancerous cell
• isolate mRNA from both cells; synthesize labelled cDNA; denature and place on microarray

DNA Microarray
To read the results:• RED shows gene is expressed in
experimental (cancerous) cell• GREEN show gene is expressed in
normal cell• YELLOW shows gene is expressed in
both cells
