Complementation analysis is an important and widely used genetic tool. We will use it to confirm and expand our knowledge about the location of the gene mutation that is responsible for the phenotype abberation you are studying. You should find and read some general background information on complementation analysis as a genetic tool. A good place to start is the Wikipedia article found at: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complementation_(genetics)].

Lab 5 Complementation Assignment

Complementation analysis is an important and widely used genetic tool. We will use it to confirm and expand our knowledge about the location of the gene mutation that is responsible for the phenotype abberation you are studying. You should find and read some general background information on complementation analysis as a genetic tool. A good place to start is the Wikipedia article found at: [1]. An excellent scholarly article by Hawley and Gilliland can be found in Genetics, Vol. 174, 5-15, September 2006, at doi:10.1534/genetics.106.064550. Your homework assignment to show that you understand complementation and how you will use it in our Series 2 forward genetics project will be due at the beginning of lab next time.

Please write a 1-2 page summary describing complementation analysis as a genetic tool both generally and specifically related to your project.
