Cards

Term
Hershey&Chase experiment
Definition
  1. Protiens of virus were made radioactive.
  2. virus inffected bacteria
  3.  blended to remove phage
  4. Centerifuge to seperate virus and bacteria
  5. DNA in bacteria and Protein coat in solution
  6. DNA not radioactive and protein coat is 
Term
Preperation of bacterial DNA
Definition
  1. Culture of bacteria grown and harvested 
  2. cells are removed and broken to give a cell extract
  3. the dna is purified from the cell extract 
  4. dna is concentrated
Term
DNA purification(glass rod and centerfuge)
Definition
  • DNA is layered with absolute ethanol collected using a glass rod 
  • or for low concentraction ethonal is used at a ratio of 2.5:1 and the DNA is centerfuged 
Term
DNA purification (silica)
Definition
  1. cell extract poored into silica column
  2. DNA binds to silica
  3. column centerifuged to removed biochemicals
  4. water is added and centerifuged again to extra DNA
Term
DNA purification(ion exchange)
Definition
  1. cell extract is put in column with ion exchange resin 
  2. salt is added
  3. centerifuge out the biochemicals
  4. more salt is added
  5. centerifuge out DNA
Term
CTAB method for isolation of plant DNA
Definition
  1. Add CTAB to cell extract
  2. centerifuge
  3. pellat is nucleic-acid CTAB complex
  4. resuspend pellet in IM NaCl
  5. ethonal precipitation and ribonuclease treatment
  6. pure DNA
Term
CTAB
Definition
detergent and similar to an anion-binding reagent, binding negatively charged molecules which preciptates under low salt
Term
Cleared lysate plasmid purifcation
Definition
  1. add lysozyme + EDA and 25% sucrose to bacterial cells
  2. then add triton 100 X
  3. then centerfuge for plasmids on top in a clear lysate

 

Term
alkalic lysis method for plasmid purification
Definition
  1. linear and super coiled plasmid mixed
  2. bring mixture to ph 12-12.5
  3. then to ph 7
  4. the centerfuge
