Nucleic Acid Hybridization
• Nucleic acid hybridization is a fundamental tool in molecular genetics which takesadvantage of the ability of individual single-stranded nucleic acid molecules to form double stranded molecules (that is, to hybridize to each other)
![Page 12: Recombinant DNA technology Genomics Proteomicsbmg.fc.ul.pt/Disciplinas/FundBiolMolec/20GenomicaAula.pdfRecombinant DNA technology Genomics Proteomics Genetic engineering, recombinant](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040201/5e64b7d22eea3c505c060c0c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
- A labeled nucleic acid - a probe - to identify related DNA or RNA molecules
- Complex mixture of unlabeled nucleic acid molecules- the target
-Base complementarity with a high degree of similarity between the probe and the target.
Standard nucleic acid hybridization assays

DNA polymorphisms
• DNA polymorphisms are specific sites inthe genome (locus) where the precise sequence of DNA tends to differ inunrelated individuals
• These polymorphisms when found ingenes, accounting for the differences inphenotype, are usually referred as mutations or variants (alleles)
![Page 22: Recombinant DNA technology Genomics Proteomicsbmg.fc.ul.pt/Disciplinas/FundBiolMolec/20GenomicaAula.pdfRecombinant DNA technology Genomics Proteomics Genetic engineering, recombinant](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040201/5e64b7d22eea3c505c060c0c/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• Large number polymorphisms haveaccumulated in the intergenic regions ofmost eucaryotic organisms (no selectivepressure)
• These polymorphisms have turned out to be valuable tools for genetic mapping andfor forensic identification

DNA Markers (or DNA polymorphisms) present in genomic DNA
• Single-nucleotide polymorfisms (SNPs)• DNA sequence analysis
• Restriction fragment lenght polymorphisms (RFLPs)
• Southern blot
• Tandem repeat polymorphisms or SSLPs(simple sequence lenght polymorphisms)– ex. VNTR (variable number of tandem repeats, 9-80
bp)• PCR, Southern blot
![Page 24: Recombinant DNA technology Genomics Proteomicsbmg.fc.ul.pt/Disciplinas/FundBiolMolec/20GenomicaAula.pdfRecombinant DNA technology Genomics Proteomics Genetic engineering, recombinant](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040201/5e64b7d22eea3c505c060c0c/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
RFLPsRestriction fragment lenght polymorphisms
- RFLPs are variations (polymorphisms)in the patterns of fragments producedwhen DNA molecules are cut with thesame restriction enzyme
Different patterns of fragments Differences in DNA sequences
- Inherited differences used in mapping(genetic markers)

Functional genomics
Characterizes the function elucidatedby structural genomics
![Page 37: Recombinant DNA technology Genomics Proteomicsbmg.fc.ul.pt/Disciplinas/FundBiolMolec/20GenomicaAula.pdfRecombinant DNA technology Genomics Proteomics Genetic engineering, recombinant](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040201/5e64b7d22eea3c505c060c0c/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Goals of functional genomics
Identifying genesRecognizing their organization
• Understanding their functionand
• Identifying all the RNA molecules transcribed from a genome (Transcriptome)
• All the proteins encoded by the genome (Proteome)
• Computational methods• Experimental methods
![Page 38: Recombinant DNA technology Genomics Proteomicsbmg.fc.ul.pt/Disciplinas/FundBiolMolec/20GenomicaAula.pdfRecombinant DNA technology Genomics Proteomics Genetic engineering, recombinant](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040201/5e64b7d22eea3c505c060c0c/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Computational methods
• Develop computational methods bypass theisolation and chracterization of individual genes– Homology searches
• DNA or protein sequences (ex. protein domains)
• Same or different organisms
Genes evolutionary related- Homologous- paralogs (homologous gene in the same organism from duplicationof a single gene- alfa and beta subunit of hemoglobin)
- orthologs (same gene in different species evolved from a commonancestor- alfa subunit of mice and humans)
Paralogs often involved in new functions
![Page 39: Recombinant DNA technology Genomics Proteomicsbmg.fc.ul.pt/Disciplinas/FundBiolMolec/20GenomicaAula.pdfRecombinant DNA technology Genomics Proteomics Genetic engineering, recombinant](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022040201/5e64b7d22eea3c505c060c0c/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Homologous sequences are evolutionarily related
Genes A1 and A2 are paralogsGenes B1 and B2 are paralogsGenes A1 and B1 are orthologsGenes A2 and B2 are orthologs
Paralogous genes – homologous genes in thesame species that arose through the duplicationof a single ancestral gene
Ortologous genes – homologous genes in the different species, because the two species havea common ancestor that also possessed the gene

Gene expression and microarrays(or gene chips)
• Rely on nucleic acids hybridization
• Monitors expression of thousands ofgenes silmultaneously- which genes are active in a particular tissue or moment of a biological process such has developmentor disease progression.

The tudor domain
The domain is also found in a second Drosophila protein, homeless, involved in RNA transport during oogenesis and in the human A-kinase anchor protein (AKAP149),which plays a role in RNA metabolism. The proteins have dissimilar structures other than the presence of the tudor domains. The activity of each protein involves RNA in one way or another
