46 23 Same: size, shape, genes XY XX smaller
3
Gene Expression Environment can affect phenotype being expressed
HIMALAYAN RABBIT – temp causes activation and deactivation of fur color genes Low temp = black fur High temp = white fur
4
Double helix replicate A T G C A T G C A U G C
6
DNA REPLICATION Ability to copy code instructions in DNA
Single strand is a template New subunits attach to template to create a new strand Needed for cell division and new offspring during reproduction
7
RNA Single strand Found in nucleus, cytoplasm, ribosome
Complementary base pairing A - U G - C Sequence of bases codes for specific amino acid (codon)
8
3 nucleus ribosomes RNA mRNA tRNA protein shape function function
9
Amino bases acids shape function
10
PROTEIN SYNTHESIS STEP 1: nucleus = DNA codes of mRNA, enzymes needed
STEP 2: cytoplasm = mRNA travels from nucleus through cytoplasm to ribosomes STEP 3: ribosomes = tRNA moves amino acides to ribosomes for assembly of proteins, amino acids bonded in order specified by mRNA TRANSCRIPTION TRANSLATION
11
Protein Synthesis: From nucleus to cytoplasm
transcription DNA mRNA protein translation trait nucleus cytoplasm
12
Protein Synthesis: From gene to protein
cytoplasm aa transcription translation DNA mRNA protein ribosome mRNA leaves nucleus through nuclear pores U C A G proteins synthesized by ribosomes using instructions on mRNA trait nucleus
13
How are the codons matched to amino acids?
TACGCACATTTACGTACGCGG DNA AUGCGUGUAAAUGCAUGCGCC mRNA codon UAC Tyr GCA Ala tRNA CAU His anti-codon amino acid
14
Let’s Review: TRANSCRIPTION DNA to RNA nucleus TRANSLATION RNA to protein ribosome
15
DNA mRNA tRNA or codon Amino acid
16
Change in chromosome/gene sequence
Amino acids Something that could cause mutations Radiation, chemicals…etc
17
NONDISJUNCTION Addition of loss of 1 chromosome chromosomal mutation
abnormal separation during ANAPHASE 1 (meiosis) Trisomy 21 – Down’s Syndrome
18
Mutations cause….. different folding of proteins – cause protein malfunction cells to die mutated cells survive and replicate DNA = more cells mutated in body can only be passed on to offspring if occur in sex cells Disorders caused by mutations… Sickle cell anemia Cystic fibrosis
19
Choose desirable trait for breeding
Alter genetic instructions Restriction enzymes protein the same Bacteria Insulin Human growth
20
Recombinant DNA Isolated gene Plasmid Mitosis
21
RECOMBINANT DNA TECHNOLOGY
ISOLATED GENE RESTRICTION ENZYMES PLASMID RECOMBINANT DNA
22
+ Sticky ends are exposed, glue genes together
gene from other organism + recombinant plasmid vector Sticky ends are exposed, glue genes together plasmid transformed bacteria grow bacteria
23
Why Genetic Engineering??
Insulin and other human hormones Genetically modified organisms (GMO) enabling plants to produce new proteins Protect crops from insects: BT corn corn produces a bacterial toxin that kills corn borer (caterpillar pest of corn) Extend growing season: fishberries strawberries with an anti-freezing gene from flounder Improve quality of food: golden rice rice producing vitamin A improves nutritional value
24
DNA fragments move Largest to smallest
26
Isolated gene Recombinant DNA plasmid
27
Electric current, moving from large to small fragments
different banding patterns
28
There is no right answer for a choice
Radiation uv Rays chemicals
32
The diagram below represents a genetic procedure.
Which statement best describes the outcome of this procedure? (1) Bacterial cells will destroy defective human genetic material. (2) Bacterial cells may form a multicellular embryo. (3) The inserted human DNA will change harmful bacteria to harmless ones. (4) The inserted human DNA may direct the synthesis of human proteins.
