A DNA Finn reprint is the same for every cell, tissue, and organ of a person. It cannot be altered by any known treatment. Consequently, DNA fingerprinting is rapidly becoming the primary method for identifying and distinguishing among individual human beings An additional application of DNA fingerprint technology is the diagnosis of inherited disorders in adults, children, and nub Ron babies. DNA fingerprinting is a laboratory procedure that requires six steps: (1) isolation 0 f DNA (2) cutting, sizing, and sorting, (3)transfer of DNA to nylon, (4 & 5) probing, and (6)DNA fin reprint.
Part 2. NATIONAL CENTER FOR BIOTECHNOLOGY I’ve used this website in my microbiology class to identify an unknown bacteria a using the sites DNA sequencing data using BLAST. BLAST for Basic Local Alignment Search Tool is an algorithm for comparing primary biological sequence information, such as the nonacid sequences of different proteins or the nucleotides Of DNA sequences . A BLAST search enables a researcher to compare a query sequence with a library or database of sequences, and identify library sequences that resemble the query sequence.
This site conducts basic and applied research in computational, mathematical, and theoretical problems in molecular biology y and genetics, including genome analysis, sequence comparisons, sequence search method eulogies, macromolecular structure, dynamics and interaction, and structure/ function prediction. Not only does it conducts sequencing analysis but it also has the well known resource of Pumped. Pumped is a free search engine accessing primarily the MEDICINE database of references and abstracts on life sciences and biomedical topics. Part 3. HUMAN GENOME PROJECT The Human Genome Project (HOG) was completed in 2003.
T he Human Genome Project (HOG) was a arrear project coordinated by the U. S. Department of Energy (D OF) and the National Institutes of Health. Additional contributions came from Japan, Franc e, Germany, China, and others. Project goals were to identify all the approximately 20,500 genes in human DNA, determine the sequences of the 3 billion chemical base pairs that make up human DNA, store this information in databases, improve tools for data analysis, transfer r elated technologies o the private sector, and address the ethical, legal, and social issues (ELSE) that t may arise from the project.
