Mendel 1860’s

studied “genetics”

inheritance and variability

Sanger 1977

first genome sequenced (phage)

genomics -study of entire genome

Human Genome project:

Proposed in 1986Funded in 1989

Preliminary report in 2001 (94%)Completed in 2003

(completed many others too)

Genome results

1. 95% of human DNA is non-coding (not genes)2. Fewer genes found than expected (35,000)3. Many genes have unknown functions4. Only 1% of our genes are unique

(similar to 46% of genes in yeast)5. 200 genes like bacteria6. mutation rates differ in different parts of genome7. Many sites (15) for variability

(each individual is genetically unique)

Even though we know the genetic “information” we are still a long way from understanding how it all functions as an integrated package

How would you go about studying?

When do genes get turned “on?”

When do genes get turned “off?”

What happens when genes are changed?

What genes affect other genes?

Real-Time PCR

Method of PCR in which the amount of amplicon generated is measured each cycle

Quantitative (relative or absolute)

Allows comparison of several samples in a single run (experiment) or across multiple runs

Uses much less RNA than Northern Blot

Amount of amplicon is measured using fluorescence:

probe

intercalating dye

molecular beacon

Techniques used in Genomics

Real-Time PCR

•Probe Method:– 5’ and 3’ primers

Techniques used in Genomics

5’ 3’– Probe with reporter dye on 5’

end and quencher on 3’ end

– Close proximity of quencher keeps reporter from fluorescing

– Taq polyermase adds dNTPs to extend complementary sequence

– Taq polymerase 5’ → 3’ nuclease activity cleaves the reporter dye

– Reporter dye fluoresces

– Each round of PCR will result in more released reporter dye

– Thermocycler records amount of fluorescence each round of PCR

Real-Time PCR

• SYBR Green Method:

– 5’ and 3’ primers

Techniques used in Genomics

– SYBR Green intercalates double-stranded DNA and fluoresces

– Each round of PCR results in more SYBR Green binding of double-stranded DNA

– Thermocycler records amount of fluorescence each round

Real-Time PCR

•Molecular Beacon Method:

Techniques used in Genomics

5’ 3’

– Beacon with reporter dye on 5’ end and quencher on 3’ end

– Close proximity of quencher keeps reporter from fluorescing

– Taq polyermase adds dNTPs to extend complementary sequence

– Beacon hybridizes to complementary sequence

– Reporter dye far enough away from quencher to fluoresce

– Each round of PCR will result in more hybridized beacon

– Thermocycler records amount of fluorescence each round of PCR

– In second round of PCR, the copied sequences & beacon are denatured
