DNA Fingerprinting

What is DNA Fingerprinting? A technique used by scientists to distinguish between individuals of the same species using only samples of their DNA

Step 1: Obtain a biological sample (saliva, blood, hair, etc…) Step 2: The DNA is cut into fragments using restriction enzymes. Each restriction enzyme cuts DNA at a specific base sequence.

The sections of DNA that are cut out are called restriction fragments. This yields thousands of restriction fragments of all different sizes because the base sequences being cut may be far apart (long fragment) or close together (short fragment).

Stage 3: Fragments are separated on the basis of size using a process called gel electrophoresis. DNA fragments are injected into wells and an electric current is applied along the gel.

DNA is negatively charged so it is attracted to the positive end of the gel. The shorter DNA fragments move faster than the longer fragments. DNA is separated on basis of size.

A material is added which combines with the DNA fragments to produce a fluorescent image. A photographic copy of the DNA bands is obtained.

Stage 4: The pattern of fragment distribution is then analysed.

Uses of DNA Profiling DNA profiling is used to solve crimes and medical problems

Example A violent murder occurred. The forensics team retrieved a blood sample from the crime scene. They prepared DNA profiles of the blood sample, the victim and a suspect as follows:

Was the suspect at the crime scene? Suspects Profile Blood sample from crime scene Victims profile

Example: A Paternity Test By comparing the DNA profile of a mother and her child it is possible to identify DNA fragments in the child which are absent from the mother and must therefore have been inherited from the biological father.

Is this man the father of the child? Mother Child Man
