  2. DNA Preparation for Sequencing DNA must be free of contaminants. Submit samples in dH2O or Tris, notTris/EDTA.

  3. DNA Preparation for Sequencing Remove unincorporated dNTPs & primers (Qiagen kit). 10 µL of DNA/reaction @ 50 ng/uL = 500 ng of amplicon in 10 mL

  4. DNA Preparation for Sequencing Estimate PCR product concentration by agarose gel electrophoresis. Compare to DNA Mass Ladder.

  5. DNA Preparation for Sequencing Difficult to estimate PCR product concentration with conventional spectrophotometer. Use nanodrop spectrophotometer to estimate DNA concentration.

  6. Sequencing Primers Primers (10 µL/reaction) @ 10 µM = 10 pmol/µL = 61.6 ng/mL for 8-27F primer (MW = 6161)

  20. 20-nucleotide primer (MW = 6600) in 1 ml 5 ml  495 ml of water Absorbance @ 260 nm = 0.61 1 OD260 unit = 33 mg/ml for ssDNA What is concentration of undiluted primer stock?

  21. MW = 6600  1M stock = 6600 g/l 1 mM stock = 6600 mg/l = 6.6 mg/ml 5 ml  495 ml = 1/100 dilution OD260 of diluted stock = 0.61 concentrated stock = 0.61 OD260 x 100 x 33 mg/ml/ OD260 = 2013 mg/ml 2013 mg/ml x 1 mM/6.6 mg/ml = 305 mM

  22. How much must you dilute concentrated primer stock to make 10 mM solution?

  23. Have 305 mM Want 10 mM Divide what you want by what you have: 10 mM/305 mM = 0.0328 = 3.28/100

  24. 29 nmol/290 ml = 0.1 nmol/ml = 100 mmol/l = 100 mM

  25. 25-nucleotide primer = 50% G+C & 100% complementary to template PCR reaction = 100 mM NaCl What is melting temperature (Tm) of duplex DNA between primer & template?

  26. Tm = 16.6 log [Na] + 0.41 (% G+C) + 81.5 - 500/bp [Na] = molar salt concentration % G+C = whole number (50% = 50) bp = length of DNA:DNA hybrid

  27. Tm = 16.6 log[0.1] + 0.41 x 50 + 81.5 – 500/25 = 16.6 (-1) + 20.5 + 81.5 – 20 = 65.5oC

  28. From the results of this experiment, it was indicated that blue dextran (blue band) had a greater molecular weight than DNP-glycine (yellow band), as it was eluted first. Blue dextran (blue band) eluted first, indicating that it had a greater molecular weight than DNP-glycine (yellow band).

  29. The procedures on pages 27-34 of the lab book were generally followed with the following three deviations as listed below: The procedures on pages 27-34 of the lab book were followed with three exceptions:

  30. Sentence #1: “From the results …” “From this experiment…” “This experiment indicated that…” Sentence #2: do not end the sentence with “below.” (Day, page 193) “A preposition is a poor word to end a sentence with.”

  31. Both the crude and purified PCR products were determined to be 560 base pairs in length. The crude and purified amplicons were 560 base pairs long.

  32. It was estimated that the crude product was two times brighter than the ladder. The crude product produced a band twice as bright as the ladder.

  33. Identification of the unknown environmental organism was identified as beingEscherichia coli. The unknown organism isolated from the environment was Escherichia coli.

  34. DNA was extracted as described for Agrobacteriumabove. DNA was extracted as described (reference).

  35. Ends of restriction fragments produced by PstI cleavage contain four unpaired bases that can hydrogen bond to thecomplimentarybases on the end of another PstI fragment. Ends of PstI restriction fragments contain four unpaired bases that can form hydrogen bonds with thecomplementarybases of another PstI fragment.

  36. Colonies that were yellow in color and white in colorwere seen. The colonies were either white or yellow.

  37. A possible explanation for this result could be due to the fact that molecules larger then the largest pore size of the gel cannot diffuse into the gel pores. Molecules larger than the pores are excluded from the gel.

  38. Proper uses of “that” and “which.” (Day, page 196) “Which”  “nonrestrictive” Introduce a nonessential clause. “That” introduces an essential clause.

  39. “CetB mutants, which are tolerant to colicin, also have…” All are tolerant. “CetB mutants that are tolerant to colicin also have…” Someare tolerant.

  40. Active versus passive voice (Day, 198-9) Active voice is usually better. S. aureus produced lactate. (active) Lactate was produced by S. aureus. (passive)

  41. In methods, passive voice is often valid. (Day, page 67) Mice were injected with… (passive) We injected mice with … (active)

  42. In unit 3, you: cultured unidentified bacteria, isolated genomic DNA, used this DNA as template for PCR.

  43. Authors of the paper on bacterial diversity in Amazon isolated bacterial DNA directly from soil without culturingbacteria. Why did they use this approach?

  44. They did not attempt to grow bacteria from soil in culture because~99% of these species do not grow in culture using current methods.

  45. List 3 parameters that affect Tm of primer-template duplex DNA. salt concentration length GC content number of mismatched bases
