4 bases, A,G,Cbut U instead of T
Single stranded
There’s an OH here instead of an H!

Types of RNA-
mRNA holds the Message transcribed from DNAwill be translated into a protein
rRNArRNA----a component of the a component of the RRibosomeibosome
tRNAtRNA—helps —helps TTransfer the message from base ransfer the message from base pairs to proteinpairs to protein
Note that rRNA and tRNA function in the cell as RNA Note that rRNA and tRNA function in the cell as RNA molecules and are never themselves translated into proteins molecules and are never themselves translated into proteins

First complete genome sequence of a free-living organism:
1995 Haemophilus influenzae
1,830,137 base pairs (1.8 Mbp), 1743 genes

Why?
Advances in sequencing technology—major sequencing centers have enough capacity to complete a bacterial genome in a day!
Bacteria: 405 completed, 994 ongoing
Archaea: 31 Completed, 64 ongoing
Eukaryotes: 44 completed, 631 ongoing
Meta genome projects: 62

Environmental Genomics
100s of liters of water
Concentrate on filter
Extract HMW DNA
Clone into BAC or fosmid
Idea: to look at DNA directly from the environment
One way: clone really large pieces
![Page 14: Central Dogma Information storage in biological molecules](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815d9e550346895dcbc578/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Large insert vectors
BAC—bacterial artificial chromosome
Can clone DNA fragments 100- to 300-kb insert size (average, 150 kb) in Escherichia coli cells. Based on naturally occurring F-factor plasmid found in the bacterium E. coli.
Fosmid/Cosmid----Artificially constructed cloning vector containing the cos gene of phage lambda. Cosmids can be packaged in lambda phage particles for infection into E. coli; this permits cloning of larger DNA fragments (up to 45kb) than can be introduced into bacterial hosts in plasmid vectors.
YAC—yeast artificial chromosome
Can clone DNA fragments up to 1000 kb insert size (average, 150 kb) in yeast cells. Issues with insert stability, high rates of chimerism, and difficulty in purifyiing vector DNA.

Fosmid Library Construction

CopyControlTM
System (Epicentre Technologies)
Allows maintenace of cell stock at low vector copy number, and inducibility to high copy number when needed
Can be used for any vector type—plasmid, BAC, fosmid

Can screen BAC/fosmid libraries multiple ways:
Sequence ends of each BAC/fosmid
Probe with gene of interest (rRNA or functional gene)
Sequence entire fosmid to see what else is there
PCR pooled library with primers for gene of interest
Narrow down which fosmid gave positive band
Sequence entire fosmid to see what else is there
