Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)

Recap from last week So, we've extracted DNA from whole anemones, some of which (the unbleached ones) contained symbiont DNA. Sampled extractions contain DNA and are reasonably clean. So, now we have a small amount of all of the genomic DNA. But how do we get enough of our regions of interest to study them? Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplifies target regions of genomic DNA.

PCR programs and ingredients PCR ingredients: Buffer (TRIS, KCl, MgCl2) necessary for polymerase activity Taq polymerase enzyme dNTPs the monomers of DNA Template DNA your samples!

The TRP family: Transient Receptor Potential channels TRP channels are family of gated ion channels in animals (~30 present, depending on species) TRP channels gated by a variety of stimuli including temperature and ligands (i.e. molecules) including menthol and capsaicin

Finding TRPA1s We know TRPA1s are a menthol receptor, and we know that menthol bleaches anemones. Could TRPA1 signaling affect downstream activities that are involved in bleaching? How do we find out if our anemones have TRPA1?

Types of homology: orthology and parlogy

pBLAST: protein basic local alignment search tool Known TRPA1 sequences were BLASTED against the genome of Exaiptasia pallida, yielding hundreds of partial matches. The best matches were checked for the presence of the menthol binding domain, and primers were designed to assay diversity among our genets across that region of DNA.

Example gene model

Goals Amplify the Breviolum 23S and 3 putative Exaiptasia TRPA1 sequences Confirm the reaction was successful by gel electrophoresis and then sequence the amplicons. Determine if genetic diversity across these loci corresponds to phenotypic diversity observed in stress tolerance.
