19.3 Molecular Techniques Can Be Used to Find Genes of Interest
- Shotgun cloning: one first clones a large number of DNA fragments, knowing that one or more contains the DNA of interest.
- Gene library: a collection of clones containing all the DNA fragments from one source
Creating a genomic DNA library

- cDNA library: consisting only of those DNA sequences that are transcribed into mRNA
Creating a cDNA library
Advantages: fragments from actively transcribed genes; and introns do not interrupt the cloned sequence.
Disadvantages: contain only sequences that are presence in mature mRNA; and sequences expressed in the tissue from which RNA was isolated.

In Situ Hybridization
• DNA probes used to determine the chromosomal location and to visualize a gene while it is in a cell.
• A labeled probe is applied to the slide.
• FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization) is used to identify the chromosomal location of human genes.
• Determine the tissue distribution of specific mRNA molecules.

DNA Fingerprinting (DNA Profiling)
• DNA fingerprinting: the use of DNA sequences to identify individual persons.
• Microsatellites: variable number of copies of repeat sequences possessed by many organisms, which can be amplified by PCR.
• Application: identifying people who died in the collapse of the World Trade Center; identifying criminals; paternity tests; identify specific strains of pathogenic bacteria; etc.

19.5 Molecular Techniques Are Increasingly Used to Analyze Gene Function
• Forward genetics: – Begins with a phenotype to a gene that encodes the
phenotype
• Reverse genetics:– Begins with a gene of unknown function, first inducing
mutations and then checking the effect of the mutation on the phenotype

19.5 Molecular Techniques Are Increasingly Used to Analyze Gene Function
• Site-directed mutagenesis
• Reverse genetics: creating mutation in particular DNA sequences, and then studying the effects of these mutation on the organisms.
• Transgenic animals: animals that have been permanently altered by the addition of a DNA sequence to their genome.
