| Computer analysis of DNA sequences is an important tool in functional genomics because it will allow researchers to | predict the structure and function of gene products |
| most genes | act in conjugtion with many other genes |
| PCR chain reaction requires | high temperatures |
| restriction enzymes cut DNA at | certain short base sequences |
| point mutations on a DNA sequence is one that | affects only a single base pair |
| Inversion occurs when | a piece of the chromosome flips 180 degrees and reattaches its self |
| A point mutation that results in the same protein being produced | silent mutation |
| Ligase | is used to connect DNA fragments |
| Plasmids | are used as vectors in genetic engineering |
| Translocation occurs when | fragments of one or two chromosomes break and bind with each other |
| The first single-celled eukaryotic organism to have its genome mapped | S. cerevisiae |
| The first multicelled eukaryotic organism to have its genome mapped | C. elegans |
| A method of producing many copies of a tiny sample of DNA | PCR |
| A point mutation that results in the wrong protein being produced | missense mutation |
| A mutation that reults in NO protein or a nonfunctional protein being produced | nonsense mutation |
| The first single-celled prokaryote organisms to have its gemone mapped | E. coli |
| RFLP | restriction fragment length polymorphisms |
| a mutation that changes the translation of every subsequent codon | frameshift mutation |
| attempts to correct the genetic basis of a disorder | gene therapy |
| direct manipulation of an organism's genes | genetic engineering |
| the reproduction and growth of genetically identical organisms | cloning |
| A cellular process characterized by the production of multiple copies of a particular gene | gene amplification |
