Genetic Engineering
44
The ability to move genetic material (genes) from one organism to another
45
Genetic Engineering History 1000’s years people have changed the characteristics of plants and animals selective breeding exploitation of mutations dreamed of being able to artificially create mutations
46
What is Genetic Engineering? Involves the manipulation of genes (DNA sequence) within a cell or organism to produce a desired result. a change in the genetic makeup of an organism through: deliberate addition (insertion) Removal (deletion) intentional mutation of DNA Most commonly it involves the transfer of a gene from one organism to another.
47
Examples Bacteria produce Human insulin needed for diabetics Transgenic pigs produce human Factor VIII, a blood-clotting agent needed by hemophiliacs Bacteria produce hormone BST which helps control the production of milk.
49
Steps in Genetic Engineering 1) Isolate the gene and cut it using restriction enzymes 2) Cut bacterial DNA using restriction enzymes 3) Splice the gene into bacterial DNA by attaching “sticky” ends
50
Steps in Genetic Engineering 4) Place the engineered bacterial DNA into a bacteria cell 5) Clone the bacteria and collect the product
51
What Genetic Engineering Can Do
52
Agriculture 1. Plants resistant to virus, salt, drought 2. Plants resistant to frost and heat 3. Plants resistant to insects 4. Plants resistant to roundup 5. Animals that produce desired chemicals in their products (TPA in milk) 6. Enhanced meat and milk production
53
Medicine 1. Production of pharmaceuticals (insulin, TPA, interferon) 2. Study of human cancer in mice 3. Map the human genome 4. Correct genetically caused diseases
54
Clean up the environment 1. Bacteria to feed on oil slicks and toxic chemicals 2. Convert waste materials into useful products (cellulose into plastic) 3. Improve efficiency of industrial processes
55
Using Bacteria as Factories 1. Human Insulin 2. Human Growth Hormone 3. BST 4. TPA -- clot dissolving formula 5. Vaccines
56
Bovine somatotropin BST A hormone composed of protein that that is produced by the cows pituitary gland Helps control the production of milk by assisting the regulation of nutrients into the production of milk or fat
57
BST Supplementary BST causes the cow to produce less fat and more milk By splicing genetic material into E. coli bacteria the hormone can be produced at relatively low cost
58
Genetic Alterations Genetic engineering doesn’t have to be completed in a lab. Some other ways to genetically alter genes are: Controlled Breeding Changing the hereditary characteristics of offspring by selecting parents
59
Inbreeding Breeding of phenotypically similar individuals May eventually produce weaker organisms Increases the chances of harmful homozygous recessive traits
60
Hybridization Cross breeding two different but related individuals Hybrid vigor – individual out- produces its parents Decreases the chances of harmful homozygous recessive traits
61
Artificial Insemination Placing sperm into the female reproductive tract by means other than natural mating.
62
Embryo Transfer The transfer of fertilized egg(s) from a donor female to one or more recipient females
63
Cloning The production of an exact genetic copy of an organism
64
Mistakes Sometimes, chromosomes break, leading to 4 types of changes in chromosome structure: Deletion Duplication Translocation Inversions
65
Cell Changes Mutation – A change in the DNA Affects the production of proteins and gives a new phenotype
66
Cell Changes Chromosome Mutations – change the structure of the chromosome Occur during cell division
67
Cell Changes Deletion A portion of one chromosome is lost during cell division. That chromosome is now missing certain genes. When this chromosome is passed on to offspring the result is usually lethal due to missing genes.

Wolf-Hirschhorn Syndrome
71
Cell Changes Duplication If the fragment joins the homologous chromosome, then that region is repeated If the fragment joins the homologous chromosome, then that region is repeated
72
Fragile X Fragile X
73
Cell Changes Inversion – piece of chromosome breaks and reattaches itself in reverse
76
Cell Changes Translocation Broken piece attaches to a different chromosome A fragment of a chromosome is moved ("trans- located") from one chromosome to another - joins a non-homologous chromosome. The balance of genes is still normal (nothing has been gained or lost) but can alter phenotype as it places genes in a new environment. Can also cause difficulties in egg or sperm development and normal development of a zygote.

Cell Changes Non-Disjunction Chromosome pair fails to separate during meiosis Trisomy Downs Edwards Patau Monosomy Turners Polyploidy Plants
81
Downs Syndrome Boy 47,XY,+21 47,XY,+21
82
Gene Changes Gene Mutations – involve a single nitrogen base within a codon Point Mutation – substitution, deletion, or addition of a base Frame-Shift Mutation – the addition or deletion of a base Causes the gene to be read out of order
83
Gene Changes Mutagens – environmental factors that damage DNA Examples – Cigarette Tars Radiation Asbestos UV Light
84
Chromosome Changes Chromosome Map – diagram of where genes are on a particular chromosome Crossing Over – parts of genes become rearranged during meiosis The closer genes are on a chromosome, the less likely crossing over will occur
85
Chromosome Changes Electrophoresis – separation of segments of DNA by electricity based on their size Enzymes cut DNA at a specific base sequence The shorter the pieces, the further they travel in the gel
86
Gel Electrophoresis
87
Chromosome Changes DNA Fingerprinting – the use of electrophoresis to determine matches in DNA Why map chromosomes?
88
Human Genetics More difficult to study than other organisms because it takes 75 years to produce 3 generations of humans
89
Population Sampling n Use a small number of individuals to represent the entire population.
90
Twins Use identical twins to distinguish between environmental and hereditary factors
91
Pedigree Studies Use family history to determine how a trait is inherited Carrier – heterozygous – does not have the trait, but may pass it on to offspring
92
Pedigree Symbols Male Female Affected male Affected female Mating
93
Pedigree Symbols Parents Siblings Known heterozygote for recessive allele Death
94
Pedigree Symbols Fraternal twins Identical twins Unknown phenotype ? ? Female carrier of an x-linked trait Male at risk Female at risk
