  • How exactly do molecular biologists figure out all this stuff we have been learning? How do they do science with huge molecules like DNA and proteins? How can we gather empirical data about such molecules? Let's take a look at one absolutely indispensable technique called gel electrophoresis. This has many applications, but generally we use it to separate mixtures of biomolecules, often DNA, so that we can isolate particular strands for further analysis. How does this work? Let's find out!

    Thank you so much, sir. Your pace of teaching is spot on. At no point does it feel rushed, yet I feel engaged and interested at all times. Keep up with the good work!

    Man 3 biochemistry an 3 organic medicinal Chem classes later I've never hear what I did so well...thanks Dave you explained its use so mater of fact. I had instructors from France, India, and China and they d just give equipment and show you how to operate it but not how it's operating.

    How to interpret the gel results?
    How to know which plasmid has insert or self ligated or why are some results showing RNA?

    • @flookd5516
      @flookd5516 ปีที่แล้ว

      3:05 & 3:15. The left hand lane contains DNA of fixed sizes to use as a scale. In checking correct insertion you can run a lane with the unaltered plasmid as a comparison or (better) digest some of the new plasmid and check to see if the right size insert appears.

    hi professor dave! i noticed a mistake at ~1:50...the cathode is actually positively charged and the anode is negatively charged! you have this reversed in your explanation!

    • @IntellicastFacts
      @IntellicastFacts 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Common misconception…
      Anions are negative, and cations are positive.
      However, in gel electrophoresis, the cathode is negatively charged, while the anode is positively charged. (BIOLOGY) You are, I believe, referring to a galvanic cell. In a galvanic cell, anodes are negative and cathodes are positive. (PHYSICS)

    • @IntellicastFacts
      @IntellicastFacts 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Nothing switched, it’s just that there are different perspectives in the two subjects (physics and biology). The SURFACE of an anode is positive and the SURFACE of a cathode is NEGATIVE. However, the CORE of the anode is negative and the CORE of the cathode is positive.

  • @warrenterzol5725

    Shouldn't the anode be the negatively charged electrode ?

    • @zhousiling6864
      @zhousiling6864 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Because there's an electric charge applied, the anode is the positively charged electrode :)

    • @arihansen5556
      @arihansen5556 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Its called the anode because its where anions move, its unrelated to the charge, it would make sense to be cathode as its cationic but its where anions move so we call it an anode, similarly cations move to the cathode

    • @flookd5516

      You can extract DNA/RNA from a cut-out section of an agarose gel by dissolving it.

    Isn't anode is negatively charged?

    • @ordinaryindividual6246
      @ordinaryindividual6246 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Nope, the positive anode attracts anions toward it, therefore it is a positively charged electrode :)

  • @MR-zr9se
    @MR-zr9se 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    the location of plasmid DNA in agarose gel can be visualized by ethidium bromide or bromophenol blue??!

    • @MR-zr9se
      @MR-zr9se 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      What’s the difference between them?

    • @flookd5516
      @flookd5516 ปีที่แล้ว

      EtBr will (with UV) but bromophenol blue is just a marker dye that tells you the gel is running OK.

    But bigger DNA also has a bigger negative charge, and should have a bigger force acted on it. Why doesn't it make it move farther?

    • @user-kg9lq6go1e
      @user-kg9lq6go1e 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Even though it has bigger negative charge it will have more molecular weight.

    • @sjholmesbrown
      @sjholmesbrown 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Because the negative charges are evenly spaced along the DNA backbone, and the number of charges are proportional to the length, the DNA receives a very even force per unit length. As a result, the migration is affected mainly by the difficulty in sieving through the gel pores.
      Where the charge of the molecule has a big effect is in Native-PAGE protein electrophoresis, since a heavily charged protein will be pulled through faster. In SDS-PAGE (the first picture Dave showed with the bright blue sample wells was SDS-PAGE) the protein is solvated by negatively charged detergent, so it acts mainly on size.
