Which of the following is FALSE? Genomics is a branch of molecular biology concerned with the structure, function, evolution, and mapping of genomes. The study of all the proteins of an organism is called genomics Genomics is the study of the molecular organization of genomes, their information content and the gene products they encode
An Open reading frame (ORF) is? The sequence of a complete genome A plasmid vector used in genome sequencing A possible gene predicted by DNA sequencing
Which of the following is TRUE? Metagenomics is the study of microbial communities directly in their natural environments The 16S ribosomal RNA is a component of the large subunit of prokaryotic ribosomes. The Caporaso et al 2011 protocol allows you to target the V6 region of the 16S rRNA gene. In the Caporaso et al., 2011 protocol the primers include the Illumina adapters and a unique barcode for pooling the samples before sequencing on the Illumina MiSeq.
