1. PHYSICAL MAPPING AND POSITIONAL CLONING

2. Linkage mapping – Flanking markers identified – 1cM, for example Probably ~ 1 MB or more in humans Need very many families to get closer than this in human, or very large populations

3. What to Do Next? Identify genes in this region Then determine what is the gene of interest

4. What to do next? In 1990, clone region around markers, make physical map(s), look for genes experimentally In 2000, use better physical maps, at least in some organisms In 2010, use bioinformatic knowledge, experimental proof still necessary

5. Physical Mapping A physical map is primarily based on the locations of landmarks along a DNA molecule and units of distance are expressed in base pairs.

6. Low Resolution Physical Mapping Cytogenetic map In situ hybridization

12. Chromosome Sorting Flow cytometry Used in library construction Also for chromosome paints

17. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) Ability to generate identical high copy number DNAs made possible in the 1970s by recombinant DNA technology (i.e., cloning). Cloning DNA is time consuming and expensive (>>$15/sample). Probing libraries can be like hunting for a needle in a haystack. PCR, “discovered” in 1983 by Kary Mullis, enables the amplification (or duplication) of millions of copies of any DNA sequence with known flanking sequences. Requires only simple, inexpensive ingredients and a couple hours. DNA template Primers (anneal to flanking sequences) DNA polymerase dNTPs Mg 2+ Buffer Can be performed by hand or in a machine called a thermal cycler. 1993: Nobel Prize for Chemistry

49. Real-time Quantitative PCR: Measures the abundance of DNA as it is amplified. Useful for quantitatively measuring the levels of mRNA in a sample. Uses reverse transcriptase to generate cDNA for the template. Can also be used to quantitatively estimate fraction of DNA from various organisms in a heterogenous sample (e.g, can be used to measure abundance of different microbes in soil sample). Fluorescent dye, SYBR Green, is incorporated into PCR reaction. SYBR Green fluoresces strongly when bound to DNA, but emits little fluorescence when not bound to DNA. SYBR Green fluorescence is proportional to the amount of DNA amplified, detected with a laser or other device. Experimental samples are compared to control sample with known concentration of cDNA.
