10 Questions
Whole genome sequencing allows scientists to determine the entirety of the DNA sequence of an organism's genome at different times.
False
Sanger sequencing can read or detect long pieces of DNA, around 500-700 bp/read.
False
Clone-by-clone mapping involves aligning and merging fragments of a DNA sequence to reconstruct the original structure of the DNA.
False
Whole-genome shotgun is a DNA sequencing technique that involves breaking the genome into small fragments and then determining their sequence.
True
Bpu10I, Cfr10I, DraII, and HindII are enzymes used in clone-by-clone mapping to cut the vector/clone complex for orientation determination.
True
In gel simulation, choosing 'unlimited cuts' allows the restriction enzyme to cut only once.
False
The MWM (Molecular Weight Marker) helps indicate the size of bands on a gel during DNA sequencing.
True
DNA sequence assembly is a process that involves directly interpreting the entire genome in one step.
False
Short pieces of DNA can be read or detected through Sanger sequencing, typically around 800-900 bp/read.
False
Comparison of Forward and Reverse orientations is important when using Bpu10I, Cfr10I, DraII, and HindII enzymes in clone-by-clone mapping.
True
Learn about the two main strategies for genome sequencing: clone-by-clone mapping fragment genome into BACs and whole-genome shotgun sequencing using the Sanger sequencing technique. Understand the processes involved in each strategy.
