Chapter 24 introduction to genomics: DNA sequencing on a genomic scale. We will begin this chapter with a discussion of positional cloning, a technique for identifying a gene responsible for a given trait, and see how much easier this process is when the sequence of the organism’s genome is known. Then we will examine the techniques scientists use to sequence DNA on a massive scale. We will also discuss some of the lessons we have learned from the sequences of genomes, especially the evolutionary insights to be gained by comparing the genomic sequences of different organisms. | Molecular Biology Fifth Edition Chapter 24 Introduction to Genomics: DNA Sequencing on a Genomic Scale Lecture PowerPoint to accompany Robert F.

Location of exact coding regions for all the genes Spatial relationships among all the genes and exact distances between them How is a coding region recognized? Contains an ORF long enough to code for a phage protein ORF must Start with ATG triplet End with stop codon Phage or bacterial ORF
