... sequence codes for proteins. All bacteria, will have a fairly large % of protein encoding genes (80%+). Also, you may want to know that every DNA fragment has 6 possible reading frames, and only one of the reading frame encodes for a protein. This MAY be what the patent is refering to when they ...

Regarding Mutation

Yes, mutation can occur thru translocation in both genes (the individulal alleles or its fragment) and chromosomes. I do not believe an increase in genetic material occurs as it is just a translocation of genetic material. Now transposons can increase genetic material, ...

Restriction fragment length polymorphisms

RFLPs are no regions. It stands for Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism. In short you PCR amplify a region wher you suspect there is variabilty, then digest the PCR product. The mutation will change the restriction site and change the length ...

Restriction fragment length polymorphisms

I know RFLPs are variable regions in the DNA molecule, but i dont understand really what they are or how they can be useful in genotyping disease with the use of restriction enzymes or how genotyping them would work. also why can you get a blot on gel after digestion with an enzyme like EcoR1 that s...
