Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) Original DNA code CATCATACATCA Code with a SNP, A is substituted for T CAACATACATCA FIGURE 5.2 Examples of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), insertion, deletion, and frameshift mutations.

  4. FIGURE 5.3 Map of the positions of different sequence variations found in the M. tuberculosis PE_PGRS16 (Panel A) and PE_PGRS26 (Panel B) genes. The PE domain is shaded in black and the PGRS domain is shaded in light gray. The striped region in Panel (A) represents an additional atypical sequence at the carboxy-terminus of PE_PGRS16. Triangles represent insertions, bold lines represent deletions, open circles represent synonymous SNPs, and solid circles represent nonsynonymous SNPs. The asterisk in Panel (A) labeled FS2 represents a 1-bp deletion. Source: Reproduced, with permission, from Talarico et al. (2008). ©2011 Elsevier, Inc.

  5. FIGURE 5.4 Meiosis, a type of nuclear division, occurs only in reproductive cells and results in a diploid cell (one having two sets of chromosomes) giving rise to four haploid cells (having a single set of chromosomes). Each haploid cell can subsequently fuse with a gamete of the opposite sex during sexual reproduction. In this illustration, two pairs of homologous chromosomes enter Meiosis I , which results initially in two daughter nuclei, each with two copies of each chromosome. These two cells then enter Meiosis II , producing four daughter nuclei, each with a single copy of each chromosome.

A, Graph shows serially diluted control and unknowns (line beginning at 30 cycles). Line at ~0 on the y-axis is no DNA control; line at ~800 on the y-axis is the threshold cycle. B, Graph shows log of starting DNA quantity by threshold cycle for serially diluted control (open circles) and unknowns (crosses). Source: Author’s data. ©2011 Elsevier, Inc.

  11. FIGURE 5.10 Schematic representation of the progress of the enzyme reaction in liquid-phase pyrosequencing. Light is emitted proportional to the number of nucleotides incorporated. Nucleotides are introduced one at a time; a graph is created that shows the intensity of light and the nucleotide introduced. Enzymes are used to follow the incorporation of nucleotides.

  12. FIGURE 5.11 The basic Sanger method is shown here. In high throughput sequencers, the DNA fragments are made single-stranded then anchored. Fluorescently labeled nucleotides are added, detected, and identified, then the fluorescence is removed. Source: Reproduced, with permission, from Shaw. ©2011 Elsevier, Inc.
