(a) 500 bp (b) 70 bp (c) 130 bp (d) 1000 bp Dr. Ghazala Muteeb Page 2 out of 9 Question 2: State True(T) or False(F) for the following statements. (9x1=9 marks) S. No. Statement Answer 1. Pharming is a recent and controversial innovation in gene cloning. 2. Protein is responsible for preserving, copying and transmitting information within cells and from generation to generation. 3. Molecular diagnostics methods study primary structure of DNA. 4. Ribotyping has both taxonomic and epidemiological value. 5. Gene is the basic unit of heredity. 6. If a cloned gene is attached to the promoter for the sheep’s βlactoglobulin gene, the recombinant protein is secreted in the urine. 7. Plants offer an expensive means of mass production of recombinant proteins. 8. DNA probes allow for the diagnosis of infections in which the organisms are not easily cultured or cannot be cultured at all. 9. Mature red blood cells have the normal complement of chromosomes. Dr. Ghazala Muteeb Page 3 out of 9 Question-3: Match the names of enzymes mentioned in column A with their (10x½=5 marks) role in column B Answer Column A 1. DNA ligase Column B A. can digest cell walls enzymatically. 2. DNA polymerase B. binds to and stabilizes the unpaired DNA strands. 3. Topoisomerase C. untwists the two parallel DNA strands. 4. Helicase D. can join Okazaki fragments to one another. 5. Single strand binding protein E. catalyzes the elongation of DNA by adding nucleoside triphosphates to the 5’ end of the growing strand. 6. Primase is F. degrades DNA into smaller components. 7. Horseradish peroxidase G. degrades luminol with the emission of chemiluminescence. 8. Lysozyme H. catalyzes the elongation of DNA by adding nucleoside triphosphates to the 3’end of the growing strand. 9. RNase I. relieves the stress of twisting DNA strands. 10. DNase J. degrades RNA into smaller components. K. the enzyme in humans that can start an RNA chain from scratch. Dr. Ghazala Muteeb Page 4 out of 9 Question 4: (3x1=3 marks) a) The restriction enzyme EcoRI recognizes a 6 base pair, “palindromic” sequence in double stranded DNA. The first three bases of one strand are given; complete the restriction site for EcoRI. (2 marks) 5´ G A A _ _ _ 3´ 3´ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5´ b) EcoRI cuts both strands of DNA. The position of the first cut is indicated by the arrow above. Draw an arrow to indicate the position of the second cut. (1 mark) Dr. Ghazala Muteeb Page 5 out of 9 Question 5: (9 marks) A) Write a program for thermo cycler to perform a simple Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). Mention the temperature and time duration of each step. (6 x½= 3 marks) B) If the DNA is subjected to 6 cycles of Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), how many copies of DNA will you get? Write the general formula that you used to calculate the answer. Dr. Ghazala Muteeb (2 marks) Page 6 out of 9 C) A gene is cloned in the MCS of lacZ’ of E. coli. The transformants are selected by blue white selection- lacZ’ complementation on X-gal plate and two kinds of colonies are observed. Explain the significance of blue and white colored colonies. Dr. Ghazala Muteeb (4 marks) Page 7 out of 9 Question 6: In 1962 Watson, Crick and Wilkins won the Nobel Prize for their discovery of the structure of DNA. The figure below shows a picture that was shown to Watson by Wilkins in early 1953. Answer the following with respect to this picture: (3 marks) 1) Name the scientist whose experimental work was directly responsible for the pattern shown in this picture. (1 mark) ……………………………………….. 2) Which experimental method was used to generate this picture? (1 mark) ………………………………………… 3) Name two important postulates of Watson and Crick model of DNA that were actually calculated from this picture.
