Physical Maps
•Determine the relative position of landmarks along a genome segment
•Used as a basis for DNA sequencing and for the isolation and characterization of genes

How Optical Mapping Works
DNA molecule is extended and aligned on surface.
Restriction enzymes cut the DNA molecule into fragments.

7 terabytes of raided storage!
Laboratory for Molecular and Computational Genomics
Optical Mapping• Uses fluorescence microscopy to create physical
maps by directly imaging individual surface bound DNA molecules after cleavage by restriction enzymes
• Advantages: solves the problem of determining fragment order small amounts of starting material easy to automate and high throughput offers information of the structural organization of genomes
Laboratory for Molecular and Computational Genomics
Single Molecule Optical Maps are ImperfectFour major errors:
1. False negatives (missing restriction sites as a result of partial digestion);
2. False positives (spurious cuts not from enzymatic actions);
3. Sizing errors;
4. Loss of small fragments
These issues are dealt with by Gentig
