AATTC-3' (1500 units) 150 ul—for 30 DNA digests

Using their own hair or cheek cells as sources of DNA, students will isolate human DNA and compare DNA polymorphisms between individuals.

Students use Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) to identify the localization and function of proteins in cells.

Run six gels simultaneously.

In this lab activity, students precipitate their own DNA from solution and examine its appearance.

DNA polymorphisms are regions of DNA that vary greatly (are polymorphic) between individuals. These polymorphisms are frequently used to obtain a 'DNA fingerprint of individuals.

Using pre-stained LyphoProteins™, analysis with denaturing SDS vertical polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis determines subunit molecular weights.

Demonstrate the quantitation of varying concentrations of viral antigens as detected by the intensity of the color reaction due to the accumulation of products.

This activity works in conjunction with AP Biology classes.

Allow students to practice small-scale rapid isolation of plasmid DNA, which is a routine procedure used for screening and analysis of recombinant DNA in cloning and subcloning experiments. In this experiment, students isolate plasmid DNA in just 60 minutes, without the use of toxic chemicals such as phenol or chloroform.
