How many nucleotides long would a DNA sequence need to be in order for it not to be found by chance more than once in a human genome (size is 3.2 x 10^9 base pairs)? Set up the correct calculation below - SHOW YOUR WORK!
Homework Answers
I don’t know where your teacher wants you to get from this question but it’s a probabilistic calculation that has no biological meaning if you consider the whole genome because even though length sequence would be short enough to be found 2 similar in 6 million for example, it does not happen because genome has lots of variations on SNPs (around 1 SNP per 1000 pb) and others like deletions or sustitutions that make it impossible to exist 2 whole human genome similar. There are no whole similarity in single cell genome sequence from cells from the same person for example.
It’s a probabilistic calculation that I think pointless from a biological meaning.

You need to amplify a specific DNA sequence from a dried drop of blood at a crime scene. A forensic hematologist informs you that there are approximately 1000 white blood cells and 5000 red blood cells in this dried sample. She also confirms that the sample is human blood. The DNA sequence you choose to amplify occurs once per haploid genome. If you perform 30 cycles of amplification in a thermal cycler using Taq polymerase, how many copies of the...

Genetics Worksheet Week 3: Gene Regulation and Epigenetics 1. Duchenne muscular dystrophy is caused by a mutation in a gene that is 2.5 million nucleotides in length and encodes a protein called dystrophin. The dystrophin protein itself is 3684 amino acids in length. Calculate below the approximate size of the mRNA that encodes dystrophin. Approximately what percentage of the gene that encodes dystrophin is intron sequence? The human genome encodes a much greater variety and number of proteins than the...
