3. What You Must Know:  The terminology of biotechnology.  The steps in gene cloning with special attention to the biotechnology tools that make cloning possible.  The key ideas that make PCR possible.  How gel electrophoresis can be used to separate DNA fragments or protein molecules.

4.  Genetic Engineering : process of manipulating genes and genomes  Biotechnology : process of manipulating organisms or their components for the purpose of making useful products.

5.  Recombinant DNA : DNA that has been artificially made, using DNA from different sources  eg. Human gene inserted into E.coli  Gene cloning : process by which scientists can product multiple copies of specific segments of DNA that they can then work with in the lab

6. Tools of Genetic Engineering  Restriction enzymes (restriction endonucleases): used to cut strands of DNA at specific locations (restriction sites)  Restriction Fragments: have at least 1 sticky end (single-stranded end)  DNA ligase : joins DNA fragments  Cloning vector : carries the DNA sequence to be cloned (eg. bacterial plasmid)

7. Using a restriction enzyme (RE) and DNA ligase to make recombinant DNA

8. Gene Cloning

9. Applications of Gene Cloning

10. Techniques of Genetic Engineering

11.  Transformation : bacteria takes up plasmid (w/gene of interest)  Nucleic acid hybridization : used to track gene of interest  PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction): amplify (copy) piece of DNA without use of cells  Gel electrophoresis : used to separate DNA molecules on basis of size and charge using an electrical current (DNA  + pole)  Southern blotting : used to find a specific human gene  DNA microarray assays : study many genes at same time

12. PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) : amplify (copy) piece of DNA without use of cells

13. Nucleic Acid Hybridization: find and track gene of interest

14. Gel Electrophoresis: used to separate DNA molecules on basis of size and charge using an electrical current (DNA  + pole)

16. Southern Blotting: used to find a specific gene

17. Microarray Assay: used to study gene expression of many different genes

18. DNA microarray that reveals expression levels of 2,400 human genes

19. Cloning Organisms  Nuclear transplantation : nucleus of egg is removed and replaced with nucleus of body cell

20. Nuclear Transplantation

21. Problems with Reproductive Cloning  Cloned embryos exhibited various defects  DNA of fully differentiated cell have epigenetic changes

22. Stem Cells  Stem cells : can reproduce itself indefinitely and produce other specialized cells  Zygote = totipotent ( any type of cell)  Embryonic stem cells = pluripotent ( many cell types)  Adult stem cells = multipotent (a few cell types) or induced pluripotent, iPS (forced to be pluripotent)

23. Embryonic vs. Adult stem cells

24. Using stem cells for disease treatment

25. Applications of DNA Technology 1. Diagnosis of disease – identify alleles, viral DNA 2. Gene therapy – alter afflicted genes 3. Production of pharmaceuticals 4. Forensic applications – DNA profiling 5. Environmental cleanup – use microorganisms 6. Agricultural applications - GMOs

26. Gene therapy using a retroviral vector

27. “Pharm” animal: produce human protein secreted in milk for medical use

28. DNA Fingerprinting

29. RFLPs (“rif-lips”)  Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism  Cut DNA with different restriction enzymes  Each person has different #s of DNA fragments created  Analyze DNA samples on a gel for disease diagnosis  Outdated method of DNA profiling (required a quarter-sized sample of blood)

30. RFLPs – Disease Diagnosis

31. STR Analysis  STR = Short Tandem Repeats  Non-coding DNA has regions with sequences (2- 5 base length) that are repeated  Each person has different # of repeats at different locations (loci)  Current method of DNA fingerprinting used – only need 20 cells for analysis

32. STR Analysis
