- Transposing from the Laboratory to the Classroom to Generate Authentic Research Experiences for Undergraduates...the skills and concepts, students participate in an authentic research project where they use computational analysis and PCR to detect transposable element insertion site polymorphism in a panel of diverse maize strains. As a consequence of their engagement in this course, students report large gains ~~~
- Reinventing the Ames Test as a Quantitative Lab That Connects Classical and Molecular Genetics...His mutations so students could see for themselves how secondarymutations lead to reversion of amissense vs. a Figure 1.The hisG and hisD genes of S. typhimurium and the location and sequence of the mutation sites found in TA1535 and TA1538, respectively. Amino acid (AA) sequences are shown under ~~~
- Using Student-Generated UV-Induced Escherichia coli Mutants in a Directed Inquiry Undergraduate Genetics Laboratory...revealed the following: 8 carried Tn10 insertions in three different sites; 1 carried an indel of.1.5 kb that extended beyond the lacY coding sequence; 1 carried both an indel and a missense substitution; 1 carried a frameshift mutationresulting froma single-nucleotide indel; and4were incomplete, likely ~~~
- Drosophila Transposon Insertions as Unknowns for Structured Inquiry Recombination Mapping Exercises in an Undergraduate Genetics Course...-element transposon insertions in genes without documented recombination map positions. The stock centers maintain very large collections of P-element transposon stocks with known insertion sites on the cytological and genome maps (Spradling et al. 1999). However, in spite of the cytology to recombination map ~~~
- Opening Pathways for Underrepresented High School Students to Biomedical Research Careers: The Emory University RISE Program...of transcription during development. Our laboratory studies the role of insulators in chromatin organization and gene expression (Geyer et al. 1988; Bushey et al. 2008). Previous studies have shown that Drosophila insulator proteins are present at hundreds of sites throughout the genome that colocalize to distinct ~~~
- Genomewide Clonal Analysis of Lethal Mutations in the Drosophila melanogaster Eye: Comparison of the X Chromosome and Autosomes...be used to genetically engineer flies and to map mutations with respect to genetic markers. Specifically, they calculated the recombination distance between each unique transposon-induced mutation and the FRT site (a fixed marker). The most important central and difficult concept, inducing FLP ~~~
- PubMed, The New York Times and The Chicago Tribune as Tools for Teaching Genetics...considered most important. One of the miracles of the electronic age is the ability to send an individual e-mail message to every registered 1450 B. S. Strauss student providing such information. The abstracts to be used as the basis of the questions were posted on the internet (via the course Chalk site ~~~
- Teaching Advanced Genetics Without Lectures...through the semester despite the fact that site with a personal story from a Turner syndrome woman (presumably XO) described her discovery thatstudents felt that the text used in the second half of the course was not nearly as effective as the one used in the she was, in fact, an XY/XO mosaic, with 91 ~~~
- Do-It-Yourself Statistics: A Computer-Assisted Likelihood Approach to Analysis of Data From Genetic Crosses...there are no signicant differ- are covered here, while the latter two are only briey described with the full discussions included at the webences (for example, there are no signicant marker viability effects) in recovery of reciprocal products (x2 5 site. 0.202, 2 d.f., P 5 0.904). In the new book, a contingency ~~~
