DNA and Crime Scene Investigations
• Many violent crimes go unsolved
– lack of enough evidence
• If biological fluids are left at a crime scene
– DNA can be isolated from them
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings
• DNA fingerprinting: set of laboratory procedures
– determines w/near certainty whether 2
samples of DNA are from same individual
– powerful tool for CSIs

BACTERIAL PLASMIDS AND GENE CLONING
12.1 Plasmids are used to customize bacteria:
An overview
• Gene cloning is 1 application
• DNA technology
– Methods for studying & manipulating
genetic material
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings
• Researchers can insert desired genes into
plasmids, creating recombinant DNA
– And insert those plasmids into bacteria

clots in heart attack therapy
• If the recombinant bacteria multiply into a clone
– The foreign genes are also copied

12.2 Enzymes are used to “cut and paste” DNA
• The tools used to make recombinant DNA are
– Restriction enzymes, which cut DNA at
specific sequences
– DNA ligase, which “pastes” DNA
fragments together
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings
• Creating recombinant DNA using REs & DNA ligase

GENOMICS CONNECTION
12.15 The Human Genome Project is an ambitious
application of DNA technology
•
The Human Genome Project, begun in 1990 and
now largely completed
–
Genetic and physical mapping of
chromosomes, followed by DNA sequencing
Figure 12.15

• The data are providing insight into
– Development, evolution, and many
diseases
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings
12.16 Most of the human genome does not
consist of genes
• The haploid human genome contains about
25,000 genes
– And a huge amount of noncoding DNA
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings
• Much of the noncoding DNA consists of
repetitive nucleotide sequences
– And transposons that can move about
within the genome

12.17 The science of genomics compares whole
genomes
• The sequencing of many prokaryotic and
eukaryotic genomes
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Benjamin Cummings
• Besides being interesting themselves...
– Nonhuman genomes can be compared
with the human genome
