4. A biologist has received an optical dye from a friend in a liquid form. The friend did not
indicate what the concentration of the dye he sent is. However, he did mention that the
extinction coefficient of this dye is = 280,000 cm-1M-1 at the peak absorbance point. The
biologist then scanned the sample he received in his labs spectrophotometer using a 1.5 cm
cuvette and received the absorbance spectrum below. Can you help the biologist calculate
the concentration of the dye sample he received?
5.
where the two specified locations are recognized by EcoR1 (the restriction
endonuclease). We want to use EcoR1 to insert gene g1 into the vector. g1 is 20 kbp long.
We make 3 samples and run in a gel electrophoresis: v1 only, v1 with EcoR1, and v1 with
EcoR1 and gene g1.
Five bands are seen in the third column. Explain what each band in the third column
represents.
6. A cloning vector that has reporter gene such as lacZ is used to identify bacteria which have
insulin. Human DNA that encodes insulin is inserted into lacZ and this is introduced in the
bacterial colonies in the presence of X-gal. Blue and white colors are observed in the
colonies, explain what these signify.
