HHMI Howard Hughes Medical Institute Tufts University Department of Chemistry Mitochondrial DNA: Where Chemistry, Biology and Anthropology Meet

HHMI Howard Hughes Medical Institute Tufts University Department of Chemistry Concept – “From spit to SNP” Develop an experiment to allow high school and college students to determine their “deep ancestry” using the mtDNA in their saliva. Advantages Engaging for students Real world application Genetics Challenges Keeping cost low Limited time Limited equipment

HHMI Howard Hughes Medical Institute Tufts University Department of Chemistry Single Nucleotide Polymorphsim A T G C A T G CA T G CA T A T A T G CA T G CA T A T SNP 5’ 3’ 5’ 3’

HHMI Howard Hughes Medical Institute Tufts University Department of Chemistry Science Background Mitochondria are in all cells Mitochondria contain DNA Wikipedia - File:Biological_cell.svg Wikipedia - Animal_mitochondrion_diagram_en_(edit).svg‎Animal_mitochondrion_diagram_en_(edit).svg

HHMI Howard Hughes Medical Institute Tufts University Department of Chemistry Science Background Mitochondrial DNA is only inherited from mother; does not recombine

HHMI Howard Hughes Medical Institute Tufts University Department of Chemistry Mitochondrial DNA Maternally inherited Several mitochondria per cell 16,600 bp –Shorter than genomic DNA No recombination Higher mutation rate Greentiger.com Obtain mtDNA from cheek cells through saliva collection

HHMI Howard Hughes Medical Institute Tufts University Department of Chemistry Science Background - SNPs Single Nucleotide Polymorphism –ACCTTGCGCGCTATA –ACCTTGGGCGCTATA Occur throughout the genome –Nuclear and mitochondrial DNA Are used as genetic markers Wikipedia - Dna-SNP.svg‎Dna-SNP.svg

HHMI Howard Hughes Medical Institute Tufts University Department of Chemistry Step 1: Add lysis buffer Key ingredients: SDS – breaks cell walls EDTA – deactivates enzymes in the cell Proteinase K –digests nucleases which would degrade DNA Spin – keep liquid

HHMI Howard Hughes Medical Institute Tufts University Department of Chemistry Step 2: Isolate the DNA NaCl (salt) neutralizes charge on DNA Add cold ethanol Centrifuge (spin) DNA forms white solid

HHMI Howard Hughes Medical Institute Tufts University Department of Chemistry Step 3: Make many copies - PCR Animation of PCR
