Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis Protein
Proteins are treated with anionic detergent SDS linearise and make a
uniform negative charge
protein sampler are placed in polyacrylamide gel and sizes are compared
western Blotting separated proteins are transferred into membrane and target
protein are identified with specific monoclonal antibodies
DNA profiling IV 3 Gene Transfertgere modification V4
Technique by which individuals are identified and Gere determines specific trait by encoding in a
compared via their DNA profiler protein
In non coding DNA regions DNA not activated by since genetic code is Almost universal an organism
body satellite DNA made of STR's con express a new trait if appropriate gene is induced
people have dif STR repetition this creates Newly genetic modified organism transgenic
unique DNA profile

DNA sample blood saliva semen is taken and carry intrez gene
amplified by PCR into foreign cell
satellite DNA is Cut with restriction enzymes o Ex plasmids vives
generate fragments separated by gel electro
profiles are compared Process A 2

restriction enzymes at recognition sites plasmid vector contain antibiotic resistance gene only
Restriction enzymes cut the DNA to make blunt transgenic cells will grow new gene will start expressing
