1
Q
Genome methods development summary
A
- continually being improved
- now automated
2
Q
Why is it easier and useful to genetically sequence simple organisms?
A
- eg prokaryotic cells
- don’t contain introns in their DNA
- genome can be used to directly sequence the proteome of the organism
- useful to identify potential antigens to use in a vaccine
3
Q
Why is it harder to sequence the genome and proteome in complex organisms
A
- contain introns and regulatory genes in DNA
- genome can’t easily be translated to proteome
4
Q
Why is it useful to determine the genome of a bacteria or virus
A
- could identify the proteome
- which could identify antigens that can be used in vaccines
