19 Terms

1
Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)
A technique used to amplify specific DNA sequences.
New cards
2
Real-time PCR (qPCR)
A method of PCR that allows for the quantification of DNA in real time during the amplification process.
New cards
3
Reverse Transcription PCR (RT-PCR)
A technique that converts RNA into complementary DNA (cDNA) before amplification.
New cards
4
cDNA (complementary DNA)
DNA synthesized from an RNA template via the enzyme reverse transcriptase.
New cards
5
Cycle Threshold (Ct)
The number of cycles required for the fluorescent signal to exceed the threshold in PCR.
New cards
6
Dye SYBR Green
A fluorescent dye used in real-time PCR to indicate the presence of double-stranded DNA.
New cards
7
Absolute Quantification in qPCR
A method to determine the exact copy number of a target sequence by using a standard curve.
New cards
8
Relative Quantification in qPCR
A method to compare the expression levels of a target gene to a reference gene for normalization.
New cards
9
Gene Expression Profiling
Analyzing the expression levels of multiple genes to understand cellular responses.
New cards
10
Restriction Enzymes
Proteins that recognize specific DNA sequences and cleave the DNA at or near these sites.
New cards
11
Genomic Library
A collection of cloned DNA fragments that represents the entire genome of an organism.
New cards
12
cDNA Library
A collection of clones representing the expressed genes of a specific cell type or tissue.
New cards
13
Sensitivity of qPCR
The ability of qPCR to detect small differences in nucleic acid amounts.
New cards
14
Applications of PCR
Includes disease diagnostics, genetic research, recombinant DNA technology, and forensic analysis.
New cards
15
SNP Genotyping
The process of determining genetic variations at single nucleotide positions in DNA.
New cards
16
Mutation Analysis
The study of genetic changes that may lead to variations in phenotype.
New cards
17
Pathogen Detection
Identifying the presence of harmful microorganisms in samples.
New cards
18
Exon
A segment of a DNA or RNA molecule that contains coding information.
New cards
19
Intron
A non-coding segment of a gene that is removed during RNA splicing.
