You used agarose gel electrophoresis to separate DNA fragments of different size and the experiment worked well. However, you wanted to re run the experiment but this time you made the gel with a higher percentage of Agarose. How might this affect your results compared to the first run? a. There would be no difference between the runs since it is the current, not the agarose that causes migration. b. The higher concentration of agarose would cause the DNA to break apart. c. You can't predict how the concetration of agarose would affect migration. d. The DNA fragments would migrate further down the gel than they did the first time. e. The DNA fragments wouldn't migrate as
Bacterial Genomics
The study of the morphological, physiological, and evolutionary aspects of the bacterial genome is referred to as bacterial genomics. This subdisciplinary field aids in understanding how genes are assembled into genomes. Further, bacterial or microbial genomics has helped researchers in understanding the pathogenicity of bacteria and other microbes.
Transformation Experiment in Bacteria
In the discovery of genetic material, the experiment conducted by Frederick Griffith on Streptococcus pneumonia proved to be a stepping stone.
Plasmids and Vectors
The DNA molecule that exists in a circular shape and is smaller in size which is capable of its replication is called Plasmids. In other words, it is called extra-chromosomal plasmid DNA. Vectors are the molecule which is capable of carrying genetic material which can be transferred into another cell and further carry out replication and expression. Plasmids can act as vectors.
