Additional Problems
You have constructed four different libraries: a genomic library made from DNA isolated from human brain tissue, a genomic library made from DNA isolated from human muscle tissue, a human brain cDNA library, and a human muscle cDNA library.A) Which of these would have the greatest diversity of sequences?B) Would the sequences contained in each library be expected to overlap completely, partially, or not at all?
