This document provides information about synthesizing and cloning cDNA from mRNA. It describes how cDNA libraries are constructed by isolating mRNA, synthesizing cDNA via reverse transcription, treating cDNA ends, ligating the cDNA to vectors, and transforming the vectors into host cells. The key steps include mRNA purification, first and second strand cDNA synthesis, linker ligation, vector ligation, and transformation. cDNA libraries are useful for eukaryotic gene analysis as they contain only expressed genes without introns.
This document discusses yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) and bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs). YACs are engineered chromosomes derived from yeast DNA that can clone very large DNA sequences in yeast cells of up to 1 megabase. BACs are cloning vectors derived from bacterial DNA that can clone DNA fragments of up to 300 kilobases in E. coli. Both systems allow cloning and propagation of large DNA fragments, but YACs can hold more DNA while BACs are more stable and better for functional analysis in mammalian cells.
Genome sequencing is the process of determining the order of nucleotide bases - A, C, G, and T - that make up an organism's DNA. Shotgun sequencing involves randomly breaking the genome into small fragments, sequencing those pieces, and reassembling the sequence by identifying overlapping regions. It was originally used by Sanger to sequence small genomes like viruses and bacteria. There are two main methods - hierarchical shotgun sequencing for larger genomes containing repeats, and whole genome shotgun sequencing for smaller genomes.
BAC & YAC are artificially prepared chromosomes to clone DNA sequences.yeast artificial chromosome is capable of carrying upto 1000 kbp of inserted DNA sequence
This document discusses various enzymes used for genetic engineering and DNA manipulation. It describes restriction endonucleases and DNA ligase which cut and join DNA fragments.

Selection and screening of recombinant clones neeru02
This document discusses several methods for selecting recombinant clones after introducing recombinant DNA into host cells:
- Direct selection involves using a gene from the inserted DNA that confers antibiotic resistance to select clones that grow on media containing that antibiotic.
- Insertional inactivation selection works by inactivating a host gene when foreign DNA inserts into it, allowing selection of recombinants.
- Blue-white screening uses a vector with a disrupted lacZ gene; foreign DNA insertion repairs the gene, allowing recombinants to be identified by colony color.
- Colony hybridization detects recombinants by transferring colonies to a membrane and probing for the inserted DNA sequence.
- Immunological tests identify clones expressing antigens encoded by the
- Lambda bacteriophage cloning vectors were developed to overcome limitations in the size of DNA that could be inserted into unmodified lambda vectors.
- Segments of the non-essential lambda genome could be deleted to allow insertion of up to 18kb of new DNA while still allowing packaging.
- Natural selection was used to generate lambda strains lacking restriction sites, allowing restriction-based cloning.
- The first lambda vectors were insertion and replacement vectors, while later cosmids allowed cloning of fragments up to 52kb.
This document discusses nucleic acid probes and their use in hybridization experiments. It notes that probes are short sequences of nucleotides that bind to specific target sequences. The degree of homology between the probe and target determines how stable the hybridization is. Probes can range in size from 10 to over 10,000 nucleotide bases, with most common probes being 14 to 40 bases. Short probes hybridize quickly but have less specificity, while longer probes hybridize more stably. The document then describes different methods for labeling probes, including nick translation, primer extension, RNA polymerase transcription, end-labeling, and direct labeling. It also discusses factors that affect probe specificity and hybridization conditions.
The document discusses various methods of transfection in animals. Transfection is the process of introducing nucleic acids into eukaryotic cells. It describes viral transfection using bacteria like Agrobacterium tumefaciens and viruses. Non-viral methods include chemical transfection using calcium phosphate, liposomes, polyamines. Mechanical transfection employs microinjection or particle bombardment. Common chemical methods are calcium phosphate precipitation, polyplexes, and liposomes/lipoplexes. Viruses used are retroviruses, adenoviruses, adeno-associated viruses. Bacterial and viral vectors allow for integration into the host genome while chemical and mechanical are often transient.

A DNA library is a collection of DNA fragments that have been cloned into vectors. DNA libraries allow researchers to isolate and study specific DNA fragments of interest. To create a genomic library, DNA is extracted from an organism, cut into fragments, inserted into vectors, and introduced into host bacteria to generate clones containing all the organism's DNA sequences. This library can then be screened to identify and study particular genes. DNA libraries provide an efficient way to store, isolate, and analyze DNA sequences.

This document discusses various enzymes that are used in genetic engineering and recombinant DNA technology. It describes DNA and RNA polymerases such as DNA polymerase I, Klenow fragment, T4 DNA polymerase, and reverse transcriptase. It also covers ligases, phosphatases, kinases, and nucleases including DNase I, and their functions, sources, and applications in techniques like cDNA synthesis, DNA labeling, amplification, and sequencing.
Cosmid Vectors, YAC and BAC Expression VectorsCharthaGaglani
1. Cosmid vectors are hybrid vectors derived from plasmids that contain the cos site from bacteriophage lambda, allowing them to clone DNA fragments up to 40 kb in size.
2. Yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) are engineered yeast chromosomes that can clone very large DNA fragments, averaging 200-500 kb but up to 1 MB, taking advantage of yeast cell machinery.
3. Bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs) are DNA constructs based on fertility plasmids that can clone up to 300 kb fragments and address issues with YAC stability and recombination.
Creation of a cDNA library starts with mRNA instead of DNA. Messenger RNA carries encoded information from DNA to ribosomes for translation into protein. To create a cDNA library, these mRNA molecules are treated with the enzyme reverse transcriptase, which is used to make a DNA copy of an mRNA (i.e., cDNA). A cDNA library represents a sampling of the transcribed genes, but a genomic library includes untranscribed regions.
This document discusses various methods for ligating DNA fragments, including blunt end ligation, sticky end ligation using linkers or adaptors, and homopolymeric tailing. Blunt end ligation is less efficient than sticky end ligation. Linkers and adaptors are oligonucleotides used to create sticky ends for ligation, while homopolymeric tailing uses terminal transferase to add homopolymer tails to blunt ends before ligation. The goal is to efficiently join vector and insert DNA fragments for recombinant DNA construction.
Lectut btn-202-ppt-l4. bacteriophage lambda and m13 vectors (1)Rishabh Jain
This document describes the bacteriophages λ and M13, which are commonly used as cloning vectors. λ phage is a temperate phage that infects E. coli and has a double-stranded linear DNA genome. Its genome is organized into regions that encode proteins for the phage head, tail, and lysogeny/lysis functions. M13 is a filamentous phage with a single-stranded circular genome. Both phages can be modified and used to insert and replicate foreign DNA fragments in E. coli for cloning purposes.
pBluescript is an example of a combination between plasmids and phages (phagemids).
Phagemids represent a hybrid type of class of vectors that serve to produce single-stranded DNA.
This document discusses the phagemid vector pBluescript, which can be used in either the positive or negative orientation. pBluescript is a phagemid vector that can be used to clone DNA fragments for sequencing, mutagenesis, protein expression or other molecular biology experiments. References for further information about pBluescript are provided.
Cloning in gram positive bacteria by neelima sharma,neelima.sharma60@gmail.co...Neelima Sharma
This document discusses cloning in gram-positive bacteria like Bacillus subtilis. Key points include:
1. Vectors for cloning in B. subtilis are often derived from Staphylococcus aureus plasmids which can replicate in B. subtilis.
2. Hybrid plasmids that can replicate in both E. coli and B. subtilis are often used, allowing cloning in E. coli and expression in B. subtilis.
3. Recombinant DNA can be structurally unstable in B. subtilis, so vectors that replicate through the theta mechanism tend to be more stable.
Yeast cloning vectors allow DNA fragments to be replicated and expressed in yeast cells. There are several types of yeast vectors including integrating plasmids (YIps) that replicate by integrating into yeast chromosomes, episomal plasmids (YEps) that replicate independently but can also integrate, and replicating plasmids (YRps) that contain an autonomously replicating sequence (ARS) and replicate at low copy numbers. Yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) are engineered chromosomes containing telomeric, centromeric, and ARS sequences that can clone very large DNA fragments of up to 3000 kb.

pUC plasmids are small, high copy number cloning vectors developed by Messing and colleagues at the University of California. They contain a multiple cloning site within the lacZ gene, allowing for rapid visual detection of inserts through blue/white screening. Clones with inserts disrupt the lacZ gene and appear white on media containing X-gal, while empty vectors appear blue. The pUC plasmids are useful cloning vectors due to their high copy number, single antibiotic resistance gene, and ability to easily screen for recombinant clones.
Yeast vectors are useful for expressing eukaryotic proteins due to yeasts' ability to perform post-translational modifications. Common yeast species used include Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Pichia pastoris, and Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Vectors include integrating, episomal, replicating, centromere, and artificial chromosome plasmids. Vectors are introduced into yeast via transformation or electroporation. Expression is controlled by inducible promoters like GAL or CUP1 in S. cerevisiae and AOX1 in P. pastoris.
The document discusses integrons and the MU phage. Integrons are genetic elements in bacteria that can integrate and express gene cassettes, allowing for the spread of antibiotic resistance. The MU phage infects enterobacteria and has a life cycle involving both lysogenic and lytic replication. It has a dsDNA genome that integrates into the host chromosome and can replicate through transposition. The phage attaches to host cells, injects its genome, and can either enter a latent phase or begin lytic replication, assembling new phage particles that are released to infect more cells.
This document discusses different expression systems for producing recombinant proteins, including prokaryotic, yeast, insect cell, and mammalian systems. It provides details on some commonly used expression vectors such as pGEX-3X plasmid for prokaryotic expression in E. coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Pichia pastoris yeast expression systems using episomal and integrating plasmids, and baculovirus expression in insect cells using the polyhedrin promoter to drive expression of the gene of interest. The key advantages and limitations of different expression systems are also summarized.
S1 Mapping is a laboratory method used for locating the start and end points of
transcripts and for mapping introns.
This technique is used for quantifying the amount of mRNA transcripts, it can therefore identify the level of transcription of the gene in the cell at a given time.
Genomic and cDNA libraries are constructed to isolate genes of interest from organisms. Genomic libraries contain total chromosomal DNA while cDNA libraries contain mRNA from specific cell types. DNA is digested and ligated into vectors to clone fragments. Libraries are screened using probes and PCR to identify clones containing genes of interest. cDNA libraries are useful for studying eukaryotic gene expression as they contain mRNA from specific cells. Thousands of clones may need to be screened to have high probability of isolating a particular gene fragment.
This document discusses bacteriophages and their use in phage display. Specifically, it notes that bacteriophages infect bacterial cells and use them to replicate viruses. It then explains that phage display involves fusing foreign genes or proteins to the surface of phages, creating libraries of phages that each display a single protein. These libraries can be exposed to targets, and phages that interact are selected and amplified through multiple rounds. The document outlines several applications of proteins isolated through phage display, such as epitope mapping, drug discovery, and developing new vaccines or treatments that have a specific interaction with a target antigen, protein, or disease.

DNA libraries allow for the storage and organization of genetic information, similar to how physical libraries store books. There are two main types of DNA libraries: genomic libraries, which are created from genomic DNA and contain entire genes with exons and introns, and cDNA libraries, which are created from mRNA and contain only exons. To create a genomic library, genomic DNA is isolated, fragmented, and inserted into cloning vectors within host bacteria. For cDNA libraries, mRNA is isolated, reverse transcribed into cDNA, which is then amplified and inserted into vectors. Both library types are screened to find clones containing desired DNA sequences.
This document discusses recombinant DNA technology and DNA cloning. It describes several methods for cloning DNA, including plasmid cloning, bacteriophage lambda cloning, and yeast artificial chromosome cloning. The key steps in DNA cloning are fragmentation of DNA, ligation of DNA fragments, transfection into host cells, and screening of cells. Recombinant DNA libraries, such as genomic libraries and cDNA libraries, allow storage and identification of cloned DNA fragments.
Gene libraries, such as cDNA and genomic libraries, allow isolation of specific genes. cDNA libraries contain only exons and reflect gene expression levels, while genomic libraries contain all DNA fragments. Libraries are constructed by fragmenting DNA and cloning into vectors before transforming bacteria. They can be screened by hybridization, PCR, or immunological assays to detect gene products. Common steps include lysis, fixation, and detection to identify positive clones containing genes of interest.
This document discusses DNA libraries, which are collections of cloned DNA sequences from an organism.

CDNA Library preparation. ppt for Jamil sirNushrat Jahan
cDNA is produced from mRNA found in the nucleus and contains only the expressed genes of an organism. To create a cDNA library, mRNA is first extracted and purified from a cell, then reverse transcribed into cDNA using an oligo-dT primer that binds to the poly-A tail. The resulting single-stranded cDNA is converted into double-stranded DNA and cloned into plasmids in bacteria. cDNA libraries are useful for reproducing eukaryotic genomes without introns, expressing eukaryotic genes in prokaryotes, discovering novel genes, and studying alternative splicing in different cells.
Gene cloning involves inserting DNA fragments into cloning vectors, which are then transferred into host cells. Some key points:
- Plasmid vectors like pBR322 were early cloning vectors but had limitations. Improved vectors like pUC18 addressed these with features like blue-white screening and expanded multiple cloning sites.
- Lambda phage vectors can clone larger DNA fragments of 5-25kb compared to plasmid vectors. The lambda phage genome is engineered to package recombinant DNA in vitro before infecting host cells.
- Different vector types are suited to different applications based on size of insert, host range, and other factors. Gene cloning allows isolation and analysis of genes and their regulation.
Principle and procedure for making Genomic library and cDNA library.pptxPrabhatSingh628463
This document presents information on genomic and cDNA libraries. It begins by defining a gene library as a collection of DNA sequences from an organism cloned into a vector. There are two main types - genomic libraries containing all sequences from the genome, and cDNA libraries containing sequences represented in mRNA. The document then describes the principles, vectors, and procedures used to construct each type of library. Key steps include fragmenting genomic DNA, ligating fragments into vectors, and amplifying the libraries in host cells for genomic libraries, and reverse transcribing mRNA and ligating cDNA into vectors for cDNA libraries. The advantages and disadvantages of each approach are also summarized.
Dna library lecture-Gene libraries and screening Abdullah Abobakr
This document discusses gene libraries and screening procedures. It begins by explaining what genomic and cDNA libraries are. It then provides details on creating genomic libraries, including purifying genomic DNA, fragmenting it, and cloning the fragments into vectors. Creating cDNA libraries involves isolating mRNA, synthesizing cDNA, and ligating the cDNA to vectors. The size of libraries needed to ensure coverage of genomes is calculated. Lambda phage is described as a commonly used vector that can accept inserts up to 23kb in size. The processes of packaging recombinant DNA into lambda phage particles and creating lambda phage libraries are outlined.
A gene library is a large collection of DNA fragments cloned from an organism. It contains genomic DNA or cDNA sequences. Gene libraries are constructed using molecular tools like restriction enzymes and ligases to cut and paste DNA fragments into vectors such as plasmids, phages, or artificial chromosomes. The choice of vector depends on the size of the genome being cloned. Libraries allow screening to identify genes of interest through techniques like hybridization or expression screening. cDNA libraries contain only expressed sequences without introns, making them preferable for cloning eukaryotic genes in prokaryotes.
Gene cloning strategies depend on whether genomic or cDNA libraries are being constructed. Shotgun cloning is used to construct genomic libraries by fragmenting genomic DNA and inserting all fragments into vectors at once. cDNA libraries are constructed by reverse transcribing mRNA to cDNA, which is then cloned into vectors. Both library types are screened to identify overlapping clones that are assembled into contigs representing the entire genome.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

3. Gene library: a collection of different DNA
sequence from an organism, each of which
has been cloned into a vector for ease of
purification, storage and analysis.

5. What is cDNA library?
cDNAlibrary is a combination of cloned
cDNA (complementary DNA) fragments
inserted into a collection of host cells,
which together constitute some portion
of the transcriptome of the organism.
cDNA is produced from fully
transcribed mRNA found in the nucleus
and therefore contains only the
expressed genes of an organism.
5
6. cDNA libraries:-
The cDNA library
represents the
population of
mRNAs, it only
contains the exons
of protein’s
structural genes.

7. Importance of cDNA libraries
1. No cDNA library was made
from prokaryotic mRNA.
•
•
Prokaryotic mRNA is very unstable
Genomic libraries of prokaryotes
are easier to make and contain all
the genome sequences.
7
8. 2) cDNA libraries are very useful for
eukaryotic gene analysis
Condensed protein encoded, gene libraries
,have much less junk sequences.
cDNAs have no introns so genes can be
expressed in E.coli directly.
Are very useful to identify new genes.
8
12. Characteristics of cDNA libraries:-
Reverse transcription of mRNA
Dependent on gene expression
No introns
Expression is feasible if linked to a suitable
promoter
Useful for analysis of coding regions and
gene functions
No cDNA library was made from
prokaryotic mRNA because prokaryotic.
12
13. mRNA are very unstable and easy to make
genomic library.
• cDNA libraries are very useful for
eukaryotic gene analysis because
condensed protein encoded gene library
have much less junk sequences.
• Very useful to identify genes.
• Tissue or cell specific.

Synthesis of cDNA:-
15. mRNA isolation
•Most eukaryotic mRNAs are polyadenylated at
their 3’ ends
•oligo (dT) can be bound to the poly(A) tail
and used to recover the mRNA.
AAAAAAAAAAn5’ cap
15
16. Three methods to isolate mRNA.
1.Traditionally method was done by pass a
preparation of total RNA down a column of
oligo (dT)-cellulose
2.More rapid procedure is to add oligo(dT)
linked to magnetic beads directly to a cell
lysate and ‘pulling out’ the mRNA using a
strong magnet
3.Alternative route of isolating mRNA is
lysing cells and then preparing mRNA-
ribosome complexes on sucrose gradients
16
17. Make sure that the mRNA is not
degraded.
Methods:
Translating the mRNA : use cell-free
translation system as wheat germ extract or
rabbit reticulocyte lysate to see if the mRNAs
can be translated
Analysis the mRNAs by gel
elctrophoresis: use agarose or
polyacrylamide gels
Check the mRNA integrity
17
18. Cloning the particular mRNAs
Is useful especially one is trying to clone a
particular gene rather to make a complete
cDNA library.
Fractionate on the gel: performed on
the basis of size, mRNAs of the interested
sizes are recovered from agarose gels
Enrichment: carried out by hybridization
Example: clone the hormone induced mRNAs
(substrated cDNA library)
18
19. Synthesis of cDNA :
First stand synthesis: materials as
reverse transcriptase ,primer( oligo(dT) or
hexanucleotides) and dNTPs
Second strand synthesis: best way of
making full-length cDNA is to ‘tail’ the 3’-
end of the first strand and then use a
complementary primer
to make the second.

22. Treatment of cDNA ends
Blunt and ligation of large fragment is not
efficient, so we have to use special acid linkers to
create sticky ends for cloning.
The process :
Move protruding 3’-ends(strand-special nuclease)
Fill in missing 3’ nucleotide (klenow fragment of
DNA polyI and 4 dNTPs)
Ligate the blunt-end and linkers(T4 DNA ligase)
Restriction enzyme digestion (E.coRI )
Tailing with terminal transferase or
using adaptor molecules
22
23. Ligation to vector
Any vectors with an E.coRI site would suitable
for cloning the cDNA.
The process :
Dephosphorylate the vector with alkaline
phosphatase
Ligate vector and cDNA with T4 DNA ligase
(plasmid or λ phage vector)

According to genome’s size,we can select a
proper vector to construct a library .

The most commonly chosen genomic cloning vectors
are λ relacement vectors which must be digested with
restriction enzymes to produce the two λ end fragment
or λ arms between which the genomic DNA will be
digested

26. Linkers for Cloning DNA
• Any DNA fragment can have a
specific restriction site added to
the ends by ligating on a
“linker”.
• Linkers are small, synthetic
(made in the lab, or ordered
from a company) DNA
fragments which contain the
recognition sequence for one
or more restriction enzymes.
• After ligating on linkers, the
DNA is cut with the
appropriate restriction enzyme
to produce ends for cloning.
26
27. Hybridization:-
• The idea is that if DNA is made single stranded
(melted), it will pair up with another DNA (or RNA)
with the complementary sequence. If one of the DNA
molecules is labeled, you can detect the hybridization.
• Basic applications:
• Southern blot: DNA digested by a restriction enzyme then
separated on an electrophoresis gel
• Northern blot: uses RNA on the gel instead of DNA
• Colony hybridization: detection of clones
• Microarrays
• Polymerase Chain Reaction
27
28. Southern Blot:-
• Used to detect a specific
DNA sequence in a
complex mixture, such as
genomic DNA
• Cut DNA with restriction
enzyme, then run on an
electrophoresis gel.
• Suck buffer through the gel
into a nitrocellulose
membrane. The buffer goes
through but the DNA sticks
to the membrane.
• Fix the DNA to the
membrane
permanently with UV
or heat
• Hybridize membrane to a
radioactive probe, then
detect specific bands with
autoradiography.
28
29. Colony Hybridization:-
Bacterial colonies (or
phage plaques) containing
recombinant DNA are
grown on agar, then blotted
to nitrocellulose and
hybridized as with probe.
The colonies on the agar
plates stay alive, and once
the correct colony has been
detected, it can be picked
and grown up for further
work.
29
30. 28
In Situ Hybridization:-
• Using tissues or tissue
sections.
• Often done with non-
radioactive probes because
the high energy of 32P
emission gives an imprecise
view of hybridization.
• Counterstain the tissue so
non-hybridizing parts are
visible.
30
31. Microarrays:-
• Place probes from many
different genes on a glass
microscope slide, then
hybridize to cDNA made
from messenger RNA
isolated from a tissue. we
see which genes are active
in that tissue.
• Mostly done with 60mers:
60 bases long, synthetic
oligonucleotides, made
using sequence
information from the
genes.
• cDNA is fluorescently labeled
• Often 2 conditions are
compared (control and
experimental), using red
and green fluorescent tags.
31
32. Polymerase Chain Reaction:-
32
• Another way to get our gene and it is very common.
• Based on a knowledge of the DNA sequence of a piece
of DNA.
• Allows we have to design primers that, along with a
thermostable DNA polymerase, let’s make all the
DNA that we need.
36. Advantages of cDNA:-
• cDNA library is a collection of actively expressed genes
in the cells or tissue from which the mRNA was
isolated.
• We will get the expressed genes.
• Introns are not cloned in a cDNA library, which greatly
reduces the total amount of DNA that is cloned
compared to a genomic library.
• it isolate homologous genes.
• cDNA of proteins can facilitate to generate antibodies
and monoclonal antibodies.
• The most important application of cDNA library is to
study expression of mRNA.
36
37. Disadvantages of cDNA:-
• One disadvantage is that cDNA libraries can be difficult
to create and screen if a source tissue with an
abundant amount of mRNA for the gene is not
available.
• we don't get control sequences or introns, and
frequency depends on level of expression.
• First strand synthesis often does not go to completion.
• Individual cDNA clones will frequently have the reverse
complement of only part of the mRNA.
• Multiple cDNA clones from a single mRNA will be
present in the library.
• Priming second strand synthesis is inefficient.
37
38. Application of cDNA library:-
• Discovery of novel genes.
• Elucidation of gene function.
• In vitro study of gene function.
• Toobtain pure sample of a gene.
• Toget high yields of recombinant cDNA.
• Commercial production of proteins and other
biological molecules.
• Study the alternative splicing.
• Carcinogen identification.
