Hi Steve, How does this look? Is there any thing else I can say to answer the question further (attached Word doc)? Thanks |

oops! I just noticed I had the EcoRI splitting in the wrong spot on the bottom gene - should be between G and A. |

Thanks Steve. How do we know the DNA fragments will always run toward the anode, or do we? |

At pHs in the 7-8 range using phosphate or TAE buffers, DNA has a negative charge due to the phosphate groups. Since anions (-) will migrate toward the anode (+), DNA will migrate toward the anode at pHs normally used in the electrophoresis procedure. Steve |

>> DNA has a negative charge due to the phosphate groups << On second look that was not stated very clearly... I mean the phosphate groups in the DNA of course, not because of a phosphate buffer particularly.  (Same idea as in your post about the charge of a phosphopeptide here.) |

Thanks again Steve, that is mostly what I thought. |
