Question

(1) The 3.2 billion bp of our genetic blueprint is packed into 23 pairs of chromosomes, or 46 DNA molecules. Only about 2% of the genome is occupied by protein coding exons and the majority of non-exonic sequences consist of repetitive elements. Alu elements, with almost 2 million copies, are the most common repetitive elements in our genome. Use Dotletor Dotmatcherto estimate the number of Alu elements in the genomic sequence deposited under GenBank accession number AC156159. Use GenBank record U14574 as an Alu reference. Based on your result calculate the Alu density per 1 kb of genomic region in sequence accession AC156159.

Explanation / Answer

Alu means arithmetic logical unit every person blue print are different every person have its own blue print some sequence are present in one genome after that they are repeated again and again in which binding sequence different in DNA and RNA
