    welcome to the fourth video in the ape
  • 00:00:02
    video tutorial series
  • 00:00:05
    in the last
  • 00:00:06
    video we
  • 00:00:08
    did highlighting of and selection of
  • 00:00:11
    restriction enzyme sites
  • 00:00:13
    these sites
  • 00:00:15
    we can remove the highlighting by doing
  • 00:00:18
    clear highlighting within the enzymes
  • 00:00:19
    menu or shift click within this toolbar
  • 00:00:22
    button here
  • 00:00:24
    that will remove all of the highlighting
  • 00:00:26
    from that sequence file
  • 00:00:31
    you can
  • 00:00:33
    also do other things with restriction
  • 00:00:35
    enzymes
  • 00:00:36
    for example
  • 00:00:37
    you can do restriction digests
  • 00:00:40
    so if you select
  • 00:00:43
    eco r1 and hindi 3 you can do a digest
  • 00:00:47
    as a double digest and show
  • 00:00:49
    [Music]
  • 00:00:50
    a virtual
  • 00:00:52
    gel
  • 00:00:53
    of what it would look like to digest
  • 00:00:55
    this restriction this sequence with
  • 00:00:58
    those two restriction enzymes
  • 00:01:01
    you see
  • 00:01:03
    virtual
  • 00:01:04
    bands on this agarose gel
  • 00:01:07
    and if you put your mouse over the band
  • 00:01:10
    you can see the size
  • 00:01:12
    and base pairs and you can also see
  • 00:01:17
    red highlighting that shows you the
  • 00:01:21
    size
  • 00:01:22
    the
  • 00:01:24
    left restriction sites the position of
  • 00:01:26
    that restriction sites the right
  • 00:01:29
    restriction site the position of that
  • 00:01:31
    and the mass percent of that band as a
  • 00:01:34
    percent of the total mass
  • 00:01:36
    of the digest
  • 00:01:38
    if you click on the band or on the
  • 00:01:42
    fan text
  • 00:01:43
    it will highlight that band
  • 00:01:45
    within the sequence
  • 00:01:48
    you can also
  • 00:01:50
    find that
  • 00:01:53
    band
  • 00:01:54
    by
  • 00:01:55
    putting your mouse over this small map
  • 00:01:58
    that shows the features
  • 00:02:00
    of the sequence as well as the position
  • 00:02:02
    of each of the restriction enzyme sites
  • 00:02:08
    you can
  • 00:02:09
    rather than doing a double digest you
  • 00:02:11
    can do a digest with all which will
  • 00:02:13
    digest individually
  • 00:02:19
    with eco r1 or with hindi 3 separately
  • 00:02:23
    if you put your mouse now over either of
  • 00:02:26
    these bands
  • 00:02:27
    it will change the text
  • 00:02:29
    to the left side
  • 00:02:31
    to a list of
  • 00:02:33
    restriction
  • 00:02:34
    bands for that digest
  • 00:02:39
    and will update as you highlight
  • 00:02:42
    different bands
  • 00:02:44
    if you click in this show in lane
  • 00:02:46
    information box
  • 00:02:48
    you can get a list of um
  • 00:02:52
    all of the lanes the ladder lane
  • 00:02:55
    here
  • 00:02:56
    lane two which is an eco-r one digest
  • 00:03:00
    and lane three which is a hindi
  • 00:03:03
    digest
  • 00:03:05
    if you
  • 00:03:06
    click and drag
  • 00:03:08
    on any one of these lanes you can
  • 00:03:11
    reorder
  • 00:03:13
    the
  • 00:03:14
    position within the
  • 00:03:16
    of the digests
  • 00:03:18
    within the gel
  • 00:03:20
    if you have multiple restriction digests
  • 00:03:22
    open at once
  • 00:03:28
    for example if i had an eco or one
  • 00:03:30
    digest
  • 00:03:32
    in one window
  • 00:03:34
    and a handy three digest in another
  • 00:03:35
    window
  • 00:03:36
    you can
  • 00:03:39
    drag
  • 00:03:41
    one
  • 00:03:43
    lane from one digest window to a
  • 00:03:45
    different digest window
  • 00:03:48
    and it will copy it from this window to
  • 00:03:50
    this window
  • 00:03:53
    if you'd like to set up more complex
  • 00:03:55
    gels all at once rather than doing an
  • 00:03:58
    individual digest you can use the
  • 00:04:00
    digestion dialogue
  • 00:04:03
    this allows you to set up multiple lanes
  • 00:04:06
    all at once rather than moving them
  • 00:04:08
    around from one window to another
  • 00:04:11
    in this digest in this dialogue each of
  • 00:04:13
    the lanes of the new digest is
  • 00:04:16
    represented by a row
  • 00:04:18
    and the possible restriction enzymes
  • 00:04:21
    are columns
  • 00:04:23
    so in each lane you can choose either to
  • 00:04:26
    have
  • 00:04:27
    nothing
  • 00:04:28
    you can choose to have a ladder from
  • 00:04:30
    your
  • 00:04:32
    predefined ladder set
  • 00:04:34
    those can be edited with it
  • 00:04:38
    from the
  • 00:04:39
    edit from the enzymes menu under the
  • 00:04:43
    ladder editing dialog
  • 00:04:46
    or you can choose to digest
  • 00:04:48
    one of the presently open windows
  • 00:04:52
    so in this case we'll do the first lane
  • 00:04:55
    as a ladder
  • 00:04:57
    the second lane will be an eco r1 digest
  • 00:05:00
    of our plasmid
  • 00:05:02
    you can add additional lanes with the
  • 00:05:04
    plus button here
  • 00:05:07
    and it will make a copy of the lane that
  • 00:05:10
    you just
  • 00:05:11
    were in
  • 00:05:13
    you can
  • 00:05:15
    change from digesting
  • 00:05:18
    with eco r1 to handy 3.
  • 00:05:21
    you can also set
  • 00:05:22
    up potentially
  • 00:05:26
    partial digests if you would like to see
  • 00:05:29
    what a partial digestion would look like
  • 00:05:31
    you can change the percentages from 100
  • 00:05:34
    digestion to 90 or any
  • 00:05:38
    any value of digestion
  • 00:05:42
    you can select all on the column or
  • 00:05:45
    deselect all in the column from here you
  • 00:05:47
    can add additional enzyme
  • 00:05:50
    columns with this button so if you would
  • 00:05:53
    like to make a bam h1 digest
  • 00:05:58
    you can do it like this
  • 00:06:02
    there's a convenience feature for
  • 00:06:05
    digesting any particular dna with each
  • 00:06:07
    of the enzymes
  • 00:06:09
    and it will set up
  • 00:06:12
    from all of the enzymes that you have at
  • 00:06:14
    the
  • 00:06:15
    have a column for it will set up an
  • 00:06:17
    individual digest
  • 00:06:18
    for each of those
  • 00:06:24
    you can do
  • 00:06:26
    double digest or triple digest in any
  • 00:06:28
    particular lane as well
  • 00:06:31
    then when you're satisfied with the lane
  • 00:06:34
    information as you've set it up click ok
  • 00:06:37
    to get a full
  • 00:06:39
    digest pattern
  • 00:06:41
    of each of those and again you can
  • 00:06:43
    highlight to find the size of any of
  • 00:06:45
    these bands
  • 00:06:46
    you can reorder the bands
  • 00:06:50
    you can get a list of all of the
  • 00:06:54
    information
  • 00:06:56
    you can copy that text and paste it into
  • 00:06:59
    your notebook your electronic notebook
  • 00:07:03
    or you can
  • 00:07:12
    you can copy the
  • 00:07:14
    you can save the um file as a
  • 00:07:23
    encapsulated postscript an svg
  • 00:07:25
    a pdf or a powerpoint slide
  • 00:07:28
    and
  • 00:07:30
    get the information in a graphical
  • 00:07:32
    format
  • 00:07:35
    that's all for this video of the
