For complementation and complementation tests used in genetics research Complementation genetics Other uses Complement disambiguation Unreferenced date December 2009 File Complementarity DNA .png thumb right 250px On the left nucleotide s that form the DNA and their complementary. Between A and T there are two hydrogen bonds, while 3 are between C and G. On the right a DNA sequence and its complementary strand. In molecular biology , complementarity is a property of double stranded nucleic acid s such as DNA , as well as DNA RNA duplexes. Each strand is complementary to the other in that the base pair s between them are non covalent bond covalently connected via two or three hydrogen bond s. For DNA, adenine A bases complement thymine T bases and vice versa guanine G bases complement cytosine C bases and vice versa . With RNA, it is the same except that adenine A bases complement uracil U bases instead of thymine T bases. Since there is only one complementary base for each of the bases found in DNA and in RNA, one can reconstruct a complementary strand for any single strand. All C bases in one strand will pair with G bases in the complementary strand, etc. This is essential for DNA replication . For example, the complementary strand of the DNA sequence tt 5 A G T C A T G 3 tt is tt 3 T C A G T A C 5 tt Note that the latter is often written as the reverse complement with the 5 end on the left and the 3 end on the right tt 5 C A T G A C T 3 tt A sequence that is equal to its reverse complement is said to be a palindromic sequence .

SPINE stands for S trep p rotein in teraction e xperiment. SPINE is a powerful tool to detect protein protein interaction s in vivo . The bait protein has to be expressed with a Strep tag under the conditions when the potential interaction partners are presumably present in the cells. The addition of formaldehyde links the bait protein to its potential interaction partners. The bait protein together with its potential interaction partners can then be isolated using a Streptactin sepharose column. The cross links between the bait protein and the potential interaction partner can be cleaved by heating the samples in Laemmli buffer. Finally, the co purified interaction partner can be separated by SDS PAGE and identified by mass spectrometry.

TILLING Targeting Induced Local Lesions in Genomes is a method in molecularbiology that allows directed identification of mutation s in a specific gene . TILLING was introduced in 2000, using the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana . TILLING has since been used as a reverse genetics method in other organisms such as zebrafish, corn, wheat, rice, soybean, tomato and lettuce. Overview The method combines a standard and efficient technique of mutagenesis with a chemical mutagen such as Ethyl methanesulfonate EMS with a sensitive DNA screening technique that identifies single base mutations also called point mutations in a target gene.

DEcoTILLING ref cite doi 10.1111 j.1471 8286.2007.01767.x ref is a modification of TILLING and EcoTILLING which uses an inexpensive method to identify fragments. The TILLING method relies on the formation of heteroduplexes that are formed when multiple alleles which could be from a heterozygote, or a pool of multiple homozygotes and heterozygotes are amplified in a PCR, heated, and then slowly cooled. A bubble forms at the mismatch of the two DNA strands the induced mutation in TILLING or the natural mutation or SNP in EcoTILLING , which is then cleaved by single stranded nucleases. The products are then separated by size on several different platforms see below . Single strand cleavage enzymes There are several sources for single strand nucleases. The first widely used enzyme was mung bean nuclease , but this nuclease has been shown to have high non specific activity, and only works at low pH, which can degrade PCR products ...

Merge Vectormolecularbiology date July 2011 Image pGEX 3X cloning vector.png thumb The pGEX 3x plasmid is a popular cloning vector. A cloning vector is a small piece of DNA into which a foreign DNA fragment can be inserted. The insertion of the fragment into the cloning vector is carried out by treating the vehicle and the foreign DNA with a restriction enzyme that creates the same overhang, then DNA ligase ligating the fragments together. There are many types of cloning vectors. Genetically engineered plasmid s and bacteriophage s such as phage are perhaps most commonly used for this purpose. Other types of cloning vectors include bacterial artificial chromosome s BACs and yeast artificial chromosome s YACs .

for replication purposes. In general, DNA Vectormolecularbiology vectors that are used in many molecularbiology gene cloning experiments need not result in the expression of a protein. Expression ... researched. e.g. baculovirus is commonly used as expression vector in insect cells. References Reflist DEFAULTSORT Expression Vector Category Molecularbiology Category Biotechnology ar ...An expression vector , otherwise known as an expression construct , is generally a plasmid that is used to introduce a specific gene into a target cell. Once the expression vector is inside the cell, the protein that is Genetic code encoded by the gene is produced by the cellular Transcription genetics transcription and Translation genetics translation machinery ribosome ribosomal complexes . The plasmid is frequently engineered to contain regulatory sequences that act as Enhancer genetics enhancer and Promoter biology promoter regions and lead to efficient transcription of the gene carried on the expression vector. ref http www.sci.sdsu.edu smaloy MicrobialGenetics topics in vitro genetics expression vectors.html sci.sdsu.edu ref The goal of a well designed expression vector is the production of large amounts of stable messenger RNA , and therefore proteins. Expression vectors are basic tools for biotechnology and the production of proteins such as insulin that are important for medical treatments of specific diseases like diabetes . After expression of the gene product, the purification of the protein is required but since the vector is introduced to a host cell, the protein of interest should be purified from the proteins of the host cell. Therefore, to make the purification process easy, the cloned gene should have a tag. This tag could be Polyhistidine tag histidine His tag or any other marker peptide. Expression vectors are used for molecularbiology techniques such as site directed mutagenesis . Cloning vectors , which are very similar to expression vectors, involve the same ... more details
