We will be researching duplicated genes of THC Synthase that recently became prevalent due to new sequencing abilities and an assembly of the cannabis genome given to our lab by Steep Hill Labs, Inc. We will be conducting our research is within the lab of Dr. Nolan Kane, under the supervision of Dr. Daniela Vergara and Dr. Nolan Kane. The Kane Lab’s
Objective: This lab was done to help understand restriction enzymes and how they work. As well as comprehend the correlation between these enzymes and DNA Fragments. This lab was conducted to estimate the size of unknown DNA fragment thru agarose gel and electrophoresis. Background: A restriction enzyme is a protein that recognizes a specific, short nucleotide sequence and cuts the DNA only at that specific site, which is known as restriction site or target sequence. Restriction enzymes
