22.  Based on how unique the prints are  A complete DNA sequence is NOT USED, only a small portion.  VERY ACCURATE since they focus on unique regions – (non-coding areas)  They look for repeat patterns at 5 different sites.  Less than 1 in 1 million chance of non- twins having the same patterns

23.  Procedure for making many copies of the selected segments of the available DNA

24. What is needed and the procedures: 1. A sample of DNA 2. A supply of the 4 DNA nucleotides (A,T,C,G) 3. DNA Polymerase (Taq) 4. PRIMERS: › Artificially made single strand of DNA required to initiate replication

25. What is needed and the procedures: 5. Incubation (with all ingredients) 6. DNA will quickly double – Every 5 Minutes 7. New samples will make a DNA fingerprint 8. Only need about 20 blood cells to make a sample

THE START OF THE PROJECT: In 1990, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Department of Energy joined with international partners in a quest to sequence all 3 billion base pairs, in the human genome  In 1990, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Department of Energy joined with international partners in a quest to sequence all 3 billion base pairs, in the human genome  Projected to take 15 years to complete

28. The Completion of the Project:  In April 2003, researchers successfully completed the Human Genome Project  Under budget and more than two years ahead of schedule.

31. Cut the DNA into overlapping frag- ments short enough for sequencing. 1 Clone the fragments in plasmid or phage vectors. 2 Sequence each fragment. 3 Order the sequences into one overall sequence with computer software. 4 Figure 21.3-3

33. What have we achieved with the HGP:  Fueled the discovery of more than 1,800 disease genes.  There are more than 1,000 genetic tests for human conditions.

34. The Future:  Completion of the HapMap (a catalog of common genetic variation, or haplotypes) HapMap  Genetic factors for many common diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes, and mental illness, will be found in the next few years.

35.  Having one’s complete genome sequence will make it easier to diagnose, manage and treat many diseases.

36.  Powerful form of preventive, personalized, and preemptive medicine.  Tailoring recommendations to each person’s DNA, health care professionals will be able to work with individuals to focus efforts on the specific strategies Examples:  Diet and high-tech medical surveillance

37.  Technique that uses genes to treat or prevent disease.  Treat a disorder by inserting a gene into a patient’s cells instead of using drugs or surgery. EXAMPLES:  Replacing a mutated gene that causes disease with a healthy copy of the gene.  Inactivating, or “knocking out,” a mutated gene that is functioning improperly.  Introducing a new gene into the body to help fight a disease.

38.  Nasal sprays for CF patients Nasal sprays for CF patients

39. Gene Therapy has had limited success  It poses one of the greatest technical challenges in modern medicine 1. Corrected gene must be delivered to several million cells 2. Genes must be activated 3. Concern that the genes may go to the wrong cells. 4. Concern that germ cells (sex cells) would get the genes and be passed to offspring

40. 5. Immune response – body fight off the vector as a foreign invader. 6. Gene gets “stitched” into a wrong space and knocks out an important gene Patients treated for SCID’s developed Leukemia – It was found that new gene interfered with a gene that controls the rate of cell division.

41.  Altering GERM-LINE (sex cells)  Genetic enhancement  Concerns with past practices of EUGENICS – Adolf Hitler

42. Gene Therapy and Vision GENE THERAPY VIDEO #1

44.  Can be produced more inexpensively INSULIN: produced in bulk by bacteria

45.  VACCINE: Harmless version of a virus or bacterium  DNA technology may produce safer vaccines

46.  Can insert genes into plants to make them resistant to pests  Crops that don’t need fertilizer  EX: Genetically enhanced tomatoes that ripen without becoming soft

47.  FDA requires scientific evidence that allergy-inducing properties have not been introduced into the food.  If a food contains a new protein, carbohydrate or fat it must be approved by the FDA for sale.  Concerns that they could spread  “SUPERWEEDS”
