Recombinant DNA technology

DNA= Deoxyribu-Nucelic Acid What is DNA? DNA= Deoxyribu-Nucelic Acid DNA is a very large molecule, made up of smaller units called nucleotides Each nucleotide has three parts: a sugar (ribose), a phosphate molecule, and a nitrogenous base. The nitrogenous base is the part of the nucleotide that carries genetic information The bases found in DNA are four: adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine ( ATP, CTP, GTP, and TTP)

What is gene? A gene is a stretch of DNA that codes for a type of protein that has a function in the organism. It is a unit of heredity in a living organism.. All living things depend on genes Genes hold the information to build and maintain an organism's cells and pass genetic traits to offspring.

What are gene components? Genes contain: EXONS: a set of coding regions… INTRONS: Non-coding regions removed sequence and are therefore labeled split genes (splicing).

What is the genome? The genetic complement of an organism, including all of its GENES, as represented in its DNA

What is the gene expression? Is the process by which information from a gene is used in the synthesis of a functional gene product (proteins) The process of gene expression is used by all known life - eukaryotes , prokaryotes , and viruses - to generate the macromolecular machinery for life.

Steps of gene expression (1) Transcription (mRNA synthesis), (2) Post-transcriptional process (RNA splicing), (3) Translation (protein synthesis) (4)post-translational modification of a protein.

What are the genetic changes? An alteration in a segment of DNA, which can disturb a gene's behavior and sometimes leads to disease. It may be: (1) Small genetic change, genetic drift (mutation) (2) large genetic change, genetic shift (recombination)

What is mutation? Are changes in the DNA sequence of a cell's genome caused by radiation, viruses, transposons and mutagenic chemicals,

What is recombination? The exchange of corresponding DNA segments between adjacent chromosomes during the special type of cell division that results in the production of new genetic make up...

Recombinant DNA technology In vitro recombination Genetic engineering Genetic surgery

In genetic engineering, recombination can also refer to artificial and deliberate recombination of pieces of DNA, from different organisms, creating what is called recombinant DNA.

Application of genetic engineering in Medicine (1) Treatment of genetic diseases (gene therapy) e.g. SCID girl

(2) Production of medically useful biologicals (e.g. insulin) Recombinant insulin (Humulin) Recombinant Human Growth Hormone

(3) Vaccines production Firstly, the gene in a pathogenic virus that stimulates protective immunity should be identified. That portion of DNA is then isolated and incorporated into an established harmless virus (e.g. vaccinia virus).

This new recombinant virus is used as a vaccine. These vaccines are much safer since they do not expose the patients to the actual virus and do not risk to infection. This method may be useful in vaccines against malaria and schistosomiasis and many viruses (e.g. HBV)

(4) Pharmacogenomics Deals with the influence of genetic variation on drug response in patients by correlating gene expression with a drug's efficacy or toxicity

Design drugs adapted to an individual's genetic make-up
