Predict the outcome of a test cross. Evaluate the importance of plant and animal breeding to humans. 13.1 Section Objectives – page 337

12 Section 13.1 Summary – pages 337 - 340
Selective Breeding From ancient times, breeders have chosen plants and animals with the most desired traits to serve as parents of the next generation. Breeders of plants and animals want to be sure that their populations breed consistently so that each member shows the desired trait. Section 13.1 Summary – pages

13 Section 13.1 Summary – pages 337 - 340
Selective Breeding The process of selective breeding requires time, patience, and several generations of offspring before the desired trait becomes common in a population. Increasing the frequency of desired alleles in a population is the essence of genetic technology. Section 13.1 Summary – pages

14 Section 13.1 Summary – pages 337 - 340
Inbreeding develops pure lines To make sure that breeds consistently exhibit a trait and to eliminate any undesired traits from their breeding lines, breeders often use the method of inbreeding. Inbreeding is mating between closely related individuals. It results in offspring that are homozygous for most traits. Section 13.1 Summary – pages

15 Section 13.1 Summary – pages 337 - 340
Inbreeding develops pure lines Inbreeding can bring out harmful, recessive traits because there is a greater chance that two closely related individuals both may carry a harmful recessive allele for the trait. Section 13.1 Summary – pages

16 Section 13.1 Summary – pages 337 - 340
Inbreeding develops pure lines Horses and dogs are two examples of animals that breeders have developed as pure breeds. Section 13.1 Summary – pages

17 Section 13.1 Summary – pages 337 - 340
Hybrids are usually bigger and better A hybrid is the offspring of parents that have different forms of a trait. Hybrids produced by crossing two purebred plants are often larger and stronger than their parents. Section 13.1 Summary – pages

18 Section 13.1 Summary – pages 337 - 340
Hybrids are usually bigger and better Many crop plants such as wheat, corn, and rice, and garden flowers such as roses and dahlias have been developed by hybridization. Section 13.1 Summary – pages

19 Section 13.1 Summary – pages 337 - 340
Determining Genotypes The genotype of an organism that is homozygous recessive for a trait is obvious to an observer because the recessive trait is expressed. However, organisms that are either homozygous dominant or heterozygous for a trait controlled by Mendelian inheritance have the same phenotype. Section 13.1 Summary – pages

20 Section 13.1 Summary – pages 337 - 340
Test crosses can determine genotypes One way to determine the genotype of an organism is to perform a test cross. A test cross is a cross of an individual of unknown genotype with an individual of known genotype. The pattern of observed phenotypes in the offspring can help determine the unknown genotype of the parent. Section 13.1 Summary – pages

21 Section 13.1 Summary – pages 337 - 340
Test crosses can determine genotypes What are the possible results of a test cross? If a known parent is homozygous recessive and an unknown parent is homozygous dominant for a trait, all of the offspring will be heterozygous and show the dominant trait. Section 13.1 Summary – pages

22 Section 13.1 Summary – pages 337 - 340
Test crosses can determine genotypes If the organism being tested is heterozygous, the expected 1:1 phenotypic ratio will be observed. If any of the offspring, have the undesired trait, the parent in question must be heterozygous. Section 13.1 Summary – pages

24 Question 1 Increasing the frequency of desired alleles in a population is the goal of _______. A. genetic technology B. gene therapy C. polygenic inheritance D. chromosomal mutation The answer is A. Section 1 Check

25 Question 2 Inbreeding results in offspring that are _______.
A. mutations B. homozygous for most traits C. heterozygous for most traits D. mentally challenged The answer is B. Section 1 Check

26 Question 3 Why can inbreeding bring out harmful, recessive traits? Answer There is a greater chance that two closely related individuals both may carry a harmful recessive allele for the trait. Section 1 Check

27 Question 4 Answer Why is the carrier of a trait heterozygous?
The carrier of a trait does not express the trait, therefore, the carrier cannot be homozygous recessive. Also, the carrier could not be homozygous dominant because it would not possess the trait in question. Section 1 Check

Summarize the steps used to engineer transgenic organisms. Give examples of applications and benefits of genetic engineering. 13.2 Section Objectives – page 341

29 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Genetic Engineering Genetic engineering is a faster and more reliable method for increasing the frequency of a specific allele in a population. This method involves cutting—or cleaving—DNA from one organism into small fragments and inserting the fragments into a host organism of the same or a different species. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

30 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Genetic Engineering You also may hear genetic engineering referred to as recombinant (ree KAHM buh nunt) DNA technology. Recombinant DNA is made by connecting or recombining, fragments of DNA from different sources. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

31 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Transgenic organisms contain recombinant DNA Plants and animals that contain functional recombinant DNA from an organism of a different genus are known as transgenic organisms because they contain foreign DNA. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

32 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Transgenic organisms contain recombinant DNA The first step of the process is to isolate the foreign DNA fragment that will be inserted. The second step is to attach the DNA fragment to a carrier. The third step is the transfer into the host organism. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

33 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Restriction enzymes cleave DNA To isolate a DNA fragment, small pieces of DNA must be cut from a chromosome. Restriction enzymes are bacterial proteins that have the ability to cut both strands of the DNA molecule at a specific nucleotide sequence. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

34 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Restriction enzymes cleave DNA There are hundreds of restriction enzymes; each can cut DNA at a specific point in a specific nucleotide sequence. Cutting DNA with restriction enzymes is similar to cutting a zipper into pieces by cutting only between certain teeth of the zipper. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

35 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Restriction enzymes cleave DNA The same sequence of bases is found on both DNA strands, but in opposite orders. This arrangement is called a palindrome (PA luhn drohm). Palindromes are words or sentences that read the same forward and backward. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

36 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Restriction enzymes cleave DNA Some enzymes produce fragments in which the DNA is cut straight across both strands. These are called blunt ends. Other enzymes, such as the enzyme called EcoRI, cut palindromic sequences of DNA by unzipping them for a few nucleotides. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

37 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Cut Cleavage Restriction enzymes cleave DNA Insertion Section 13.2 Summary – pages

38 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Restriction enzymes cleave DNA When this DNA is cut, double-stranded fragments with single-stranded ends are formed. The single-stranded ends have a tendency to join with other single-stranded ends to become double stranded, so they attract DNA they can join with. For this reason, these ends are called sticky ends.

40 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Vectors transfer DNA A vector is the means by which DNA from another species can be carried into the host cell. Vectors may be biological or mechanical. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

41 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Vectors transfer DNA Biological vectors include viruses and plasmids. A plasmid, is a small ring of DNA found in a bacterial cell. Click image to view movie Section 13.2 Summary – pages

42 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Vectors transfer DNA Two mechanical vectors carry foreign DNA into a cell’s nucleus. One, a micropipette, is inserted into a cell; the other is a microscopic metal bullet coated with DNA that is shot into the cell from a gene gun. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

43 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Insertion into a vector If a plasmid and foreign DNA have been cleaved with the same restriction enzyme, the ends of each will match and they will join together, reconnecting the plasmid ring. The foreign DNA is recombined into a plasmid or viral DNA with the help of a second enzyme. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

44 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Gene cloning After the foreign DNA has been inserted into the plasmid, the recombined DNA is transferred into a bacterial cell. An advantage to using bacterial cells to clone DNA is that they reproduce quickly; therefore, millions of bacteria are produced and each bacterium contains hundreds of recombinant DNA molecules. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

45 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Gene cloning Clones are genetically identical copies. Each identical recombinant DNA molecule is called a gene clone. Plasmids also can be used to deliver genes to animal or plant cells, which incorporate the recombinant DNA. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

46 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Gene cloning Each time the host cell divides it copies the recombinant DNA along with its own. The host cell can produce the protein encoded on the recombinant DNA. Using other vectors, recombinant DNA can be inserted into yeast, plant, and animal cells. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

47 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348

48 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Cloning of animals So far, you have read about cloning one gene. For decades, scientists attempted to expand the technique from a gene to an entire animal. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

49 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Cloning of animals Although their techniques are inefficient, scientists are coming closer to perfecting the process of cloning animals. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

50 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Polymerase chain reaction In order to replicate DNA outside living organisms, a method called polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has been developed. This method uses heat to separate DNA strands from each other. An enzyme isolated from a heat-loving bacterium is used to replicate the DNA when the appropriate nucleotides are added in a PCR machine. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

51 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Polymerase chain reaction The machine repeatedly replicates the DNA, making millions of copies in less than a day. Because the machine uses heat to separate the DNA strands and cycles over and over to replicate the DNA, it is called a thermocycler. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

52 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Sequencing DNA In DNA sequencing, millions of copies of a double-stranded DNA fragment are cloned using PCR. Then, the strands are separated from each other. The single-stranded fragments are placed in four different test tubes, one for each DNA base. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

53 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Sequencing DNA Each tube contains four normal nucleotides (A,C, G,T) and an enzyme that can catalyze the synthesis of a complementary strand. One nucleotide in each tube is tagged with a different fluorescent color. The reactions produce complementary strands of varying lengths. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

54 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Sequencing DNA These strands are separated according to size by gel electrophoresis (ih lek troh fuh REE sus), producing a pattern of fluorescent bands in the gel. The bands are visualized using a laser scanner or UV light. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

55 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Gel Electrophoresis Restriction enzymes are the perfect tools for cutting DNA. However, once the DNA is cut, a scientist needs to determine exactly what fragments have been formed. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

56 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Restriction enzymes Either one or several restriction enzymes is added to a sample of DNA. The enzymes cut the DNA into fragments. DNA fragments Section 13.2 Summary – pages

57 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
The gel With a consistency that is firmer than dessert gelatin, the gel is molded so that small wells form at one end. Gel Small amounts of the fragmented DNA are placed into these wells. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

58 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
An electric field Power source The gel is placed in a solution and an electric field is applied making one end of the gel positive and the other end negative. Negative end Positive end Section 13.2 Summary – pages

59 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
The fragments move The negatively charged DNA fragments travel toward the positive end. Completed gel Shorter fragments Longer fragments Section 13.2 Summary – pages

60 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
The fragments move The smaller the fragment, the faster it moves through the gel. The smallest fragments move the farthest from the well. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

61 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Applications of DNA Technology The main areas proposed for recombinant bacteria are in industry, medicine, and agriculture. Recombinant DNA in industry Many species of bacteria have been engineered to produce chemical compounds used by humans. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

69 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348
Transgenic animals On the same farm in Scotland that produced the cloned sheep Dolly, a transgenic sheep was produced that contained the corrected human gene for hemophilia A. This human gene inserted into the sheep chromosomes allows the production of the clotting protein in the sheep’s milk. Section 13.2 Summary – pages

70 Section 13.2 Summary – pages 341 - 348

Analyze how the effort to completely map and sequence the human genome will advance human knowledge. Predict future applications of the Human Genome Project. 13.3 Section Objectives – page 349

78 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
Mapping and Sequencing the Human Genome In 1990, scientists in the United States organized the Human Genome Project (HGP). It is an international effort to completely map and sequence the human genome, the approximately genes on the 46 human chromosomes. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

79 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
Mapping and Sequencing the Human Genome In February of 2001, the HGP published its working draft of the 3 billion base pairs of DNA in most human cells. The sequence of chromosomes 21 and 22 was finished by May 2000. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

80 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
Linkage maps The genetic map that shows the relative locations of genes on a chromosome is called a linkage map. The historical method used to assign genes to a particular human chromosome was to study linkage data from human pedigrees. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

81 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
Linkage maps Because humans have only a few offspring compared with the larger numbers of offspring in some other species, and because a human generation time is so long, mapping by linkage data is extremely inefficient. Biotechnology now has provided scientists with new methods of mapping genes. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

82 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
Linkage maps A genetic marker is a segment of DNA with an identifiable physical location on a chromosome and whose inheritance can be followed. A marker can be a gene, or it can be some section of DNA with no known function. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

83 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
Linkage maps Because DNA segments that are near each other on a chromosome tend to be inherited together, markers are often used as indirect ways of tracking the inheritance pattern of a gene that has not yet been identified, but whose approximate location is known. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

84 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
Sequencing the human genome The difficult job of sequencing the human genome is begun by cleaving samples of DNA into fragments using restriction enzymes. Then, each individual fragment is cloned and sequenced. The cloned fragments are aligned in the proper order by overlapping matching sequences, thus determining the sequence of a longer fragment. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

85 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
Applications of the Human Genome Project Improved techniques for prenatal diagnosis of human disorders, use of gene therapy, and development of new methods of crime detection are areas currently being researched. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

86 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
Diagnosis of genetic disorders One of the most important benefits of the HGP has been the diagnosis of genetic disorders. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

87 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
Diagnosis of genetic disorders The DNA of people with and without a genetic disorder is compared to find differences that are associated with the disorder. Once it is clearly understood where a gene is located and that a mutation in the gene causes the disorder, a diagnosis can be made for an individual, even before birth. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

88 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
Gene therapy Individuals who inherit a serious genetic disorder may now have hope—gene therapy. Gene therapy is the insertion of normal genes into human cells to correct genetic disorders. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

89 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
Gene therapy Trials that treat SCID (severe combined immunodeficiency syndrome) have been the most successful. In this disorder, a person’s immune system is shut down and even slight colds can be life-threatening. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

90 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
Gene therapy In gene therapy for this disorder, the cells of the immune system are removed from the patient’s bone marrow, and the functional gene is added to them. The modified cells are then injected back into the patient. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

91 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
Gene therapy Cell culture flask Add virus with functioning SCID gene Bone marrow cells Gene Hip Bone Bone marrow cell with integrated gene Section 13.3 Summary – pages

92 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
Gene therapy Other trials involve gene therapy for cystic fibrosis, sickle-cell anemia, hemophilia, and other genetic disorders It is hoped that in the next decade DNA technology that uses gene therapy will be developed to treat many different disorders. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

93 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
DNA fingerprinting DNA fingerprinting can be used to convict or acquit individuals of criminal offenses because every person is genetically unique. DNA fingerprinting works because no two individuals (except identical twins) have the same DNA sequences, and because all cells (except gametes) of an individual have the same DNA. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

94 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
DNA fingerprinting In a forensic application of DNA fingerprinting, a small DNA sample is obtained from a suspect and from blood, hair, skin, or semen found at the crime scene. The DNA, which includes the unique non-coding segments, is cut into fragments with restriction enzymes. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

95 Section 13.3 Summary – pages 349 - 353
DNA fingerprinting The fragments are separated by gel electrophoresis, then further analyzed. If the samples match, the suspect most likely is guilty. Section 13.3 Summary – pages

96 Question 1 A segment of DNA with an identifiable physical location on a chromosome and whose inheritance can be followed is a _______. A. genome B. genetic marker C. nitrogenous base D. linkage map The answer is B. Section 3 Check

97 Question 2 Why is mapping by linkage data inefficient in humans? Answer Mapping by linkage data is inefficient in humans because humans have only a few offspring and because a human generation is so long. Section 3 Check

98 Question 3 The insertion of normal genes into human cells to correct genetic disorders is called _______. A. DNA fingerprinting B. genetic engineering C. genome sequencing D. gene therapy The answer is D. Section 3 Check

99 Applied Genetics Test crosses determine the genotypes of individuals and the probability that offspring will have a particular allele. Plant and animal breeders selectively breed organisms with a desirable trait which increases the frequency of a desired allele in a population. Chapter Summary – 13.1

100 Recombinant DNA Technology
Scientists have developed methods to move genes from one species into another. These processes use restriction enzymes to cleave DNA into fragments and other enzymes to insert a DNA fragment into a plasmid or viral DNA. Transgenic organisms can make genetic products foreign to themselves using recombinant DNA. Chapter Summary – 13.2

101 Recombinant DNA Technology
Bacteria, plants, and animals have been genetically engineered to be of use to humans. Gene cloning can be done by inserting a gene into bacterial cells, which copy the gene when they reproduce, or by a technique called polymerase chain reaction. Many species of animals have been cloned; the first cloned mammal was a sheep. Chapter Summary – 13.2

102 The Human Genome The Human Genome Project, an international effort, has sequenced the chromosomal DNA of the human genome. Efforts are underway to determine the location for every gene.
