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.

Looks good to me!  Nice summary in your Word document.

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.

>>  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.
