Order the steps required to sequence a region of DNA using dideoxy sequencing.
Amplify the region of DNA to be sequenced
add a primer, deoxynucleotides, labeled dideoxynucleotides, and DNA polymerase
a primer binds to the single-stranded DNA template
DNA polymerase extends the primer, incorporating deoxynucleotides
a labeled dideoxynucleotide terminates the growing DNA chain
gel electrophoresis separates the mixture of DNA fragments by size
The DNA sequence is determined
denature the double-stranded DNA

a) nuclease, DNA polymerase, RNA primase
b) helicase, DNA polymerase, DNA ligase
c) DNA ligase, nuclease, helicase

- Explain why accuracy is more important for DNA replication than for transcription.arrow_forwardIm designing a restriction cloning experiment. My professor said that plasmid and insert DNA work best in a 1:1 ratio. If my reaction does not work the first time I perform it, how would I ensure that the cause was the difference in concentration of reagents and how would I fix it so that the I have the correct concentration? If a restriction cloning experiment does not work, how could I be certain that it was due to an incorrect ratio of plasmid:insert and how can i fix this?arrow_forward2AQ:You are cloning the genome of a new DNA virus into pUC18.You plate out your transformants on ampicillin plates containing X-gal and pick one bluecolony and one white colony. When you check the size of the inserts in each plasmid (blueand white), you are surprised to find that the plasmid from the blue colony contains a verysmall insert of approximately 60 bp, while the plasmid from the white colony does notappear to contain any insert at all. Explain these results.arrow_forward
