DNA Sequencing

This past week we figured out the DNA types of three different people Abby Bob and Carol.  What we did was go through their DNA and seperate each of the parts into three.  We compared each of them to the normal control to find out which one was sick.  Each set was seperated into three columns G, C, A, and T.  Once we organized them into three in a group we wrote them down to keep track.  For example GTG.

Different people and their DNA.


Chart where we kept data.


 After we did that we had to figure out the protein of each sequence.  For example GTG would be VAL in protein.  When we figured out the protein the T was represented with a U.

Figured out protein.

After all of this we made a graph and it was to see the percentage difference in Abby, Bob, and Carol.  Abby and Bob's was 97% and Carol's was 58%.
