DNA TECHNOLOGY - AP BIOLOGY


DNA TECHNOLOGY AND GENOMICS

PLEASE, visit Goldies page and watch as many presentations as you can to help you answer the questions on the pdf handout I gave you in class (also posted below).
http://www.goldiesroom.org/ Chapter 16-17 DNA Technology ++++



DNA CLONING:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6PP-C4udkA  Mr. Andersen What is DNA? J
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEon8lyg46Y  Techniques in Biotechnology. GOOD


VIDEO LECTURES BY DR. ALBERT KAUSCH ON BIOTECHNOLOGY – EXCELLENT source but long lectures.
These are just some examples, feel free  to youtube searching for Dr. Albert Kausch lectures on Biotechnology for further information.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTFTT51oSeg  Gene expression (you may start at minute 25 but all the lecture is good review)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEon8lyg46Y Overview of some biotechnology techniques

GEL ELECTROPHORESIS
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mQGNDnOyH8 GOOD but may be difficult to understand for some due to the accent.

LINKED GENES AND GENE MAPPING PROBLEMS - AP BIO


LINKED GENES AND GENE MAPPING PROBLEMS
Chapter 15.2

LINKED GENES (pages 277- 281 but also read 274-276 to understand Morgans experiments).

YOUTUBE VIDEO LECTURES:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCrulK8PPAg Short visual on liked genes
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_lTyzGTnho  Short lecture on Linked genes
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_UcDhzjOio Mr. Anderson J MUST SEE THIS ONE
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MljlUzcFoDg Gene Mapping Three Point Cross Problems GOOD and simple way of learning it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yi1hB4Cs7sk Gene Mapping MUST SEE slowly and patiently. Lots of good information here. You will probably need to watch the video more than once or rewind to fully grasp the concepts. Extended version of Three Point Cross Problems. More detailed and complicated but youll get more information.

NOTES:


PRACTICE PROBLEMS:
