PBIO 427/527: Molecular GeneticsLecture 3 - Review Southern, Northern & Western blotting DNA sequencing Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) DNA microarrays RNA interference (RNAi)
Characterization: RE mapping Predict what would happen with a double digest.
Characterization: Southern blot hybridization -transfer of DNA from a gel to a membrane (e.g., nitrocellulose, nylon) -developed by Edwin Southern
Characterization: Northern blot hybridization X RNA X x salt X RNA -transfer of RNA from a gel to a membrane (e.g., nitrocellulose, nylon) -reveals mRNA size (and approximate protein size), tissue- and organ- specific expression, and kinetic patterns of expression
Characterization: Western blotting X Protein Enzyme reaction or X React with Antibody X x Buffer; requires electric current X -transfer of protein from a gel to a membrane (e.g., nitrocellulose, nylon) -requires the use of an electric current to facilitate transfer

The Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) • PCR is a cloning method without a host • Thermusaquaticus, a hot spring bacterium, produces Taq polymerase • Taq polymerase, unlike E. coli DNA polymerase, is not denatured at 95°C

DNA Microarrays: An Introduction
Microarray Result: Much analysis to follow
RNA interference (RNAi) dsRNA sense antisense Binding of dsRNA-specific nuclease Nuclease-ssRNA complex Hybridizes to mRNA cleavage mRNA is cleaved! A cellular nuclease binds to the dsRNA cleaving it into ssRNAs of 21-23 nucleotides each. The nuclease-RNA oligonucleotide complex binds and cleaves specific mRNA.
