Today we are learning the language in which God created life. It will revolutionize the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of most, if not all human diseases.

Surprise finding of HGPSurprise finding of HGP HG contains only 30,000-35,000 genes , much

less than initially expected (100,000). HG are more complex, with made alternative

splicing generating a large number of protein products.

Less than 2% of the genome codes for proteins.

Almost all (99.9%) DNA sequences are exactly the same in all people.

The functions are unknown for over 50% of discovered genes

W. TassaneeyakulW. Tassaneeyakul 1414

99.9% of DNA between individual are similar only 0.1 % are different.

Genetic concepts

= a branch of toxicology that study the effect of chemical or physical agents on the heredity material (DNA) and on the genetic process of living cells.

Genetic Toxicity

Genome

= a complete set of genetic information of an organism

W. TassaneeyakulW. Tassaneeyakul 1919

Genetic concepts

• DNA is the genetic material.

• DNA is a double helix.• DNA consists of 2

purines (A,G) and 2 pyrimidines (C,T/U).

• Base pairing always consists of 1 purine and pyrimidine (AT,CG).

W. TassaneeyakulW. Tassaneeyakul 2020

Genes consist of both coding (exon) and noncoding (intron) sequence.

The genetic code is triplet.

Each trinucleotide sequence is called codon.

• Most DNA are in nucleus• 0.1 – 10% in

mitochondriachloroplastsplasmids

• Amount varies• 5.6 kb virus• 5,000 kb bacteria• 6,000,000 kb humans

Unexpected and undirected changes in the component of genetic materials.

Spontaneous or external stimuli.

Macro or micro lesions.

Change the sequence of DNA.

Concentrated at hotspots.

Mutation

W. TassaneeyakulW. Tassaneeyakul 2424

Types of mutation

1. Genomic mutation (aneuploidy)= abnormal number of chromosomes.

2. Chromosomal aberrations (clastogenesis)= structural changes of chromosomes.

3. Point mutation (gene mutation)3.1 Transition: pur to pur or pyr to pyr.3.2 Transversion: pur to pyr or vice versa.

W. TassaneeyakulW. Tassaneeyakul 2525

Physical Mechanical tearingCutting by ionizing radiation, 32PNondisjunction of chromosomesHigh temperature

Chemical Alteration or removal of DNA basesIncorporation of altered basesIntercalation of oligocyclic aromatic compoundsAlteration of DNA backbone

Enzymatic Production of chemicals affecting DNAMistakes in DNA replicationAlteration of DNA replication systemMistakes in DNA recombination or repair

Causes of mutations

W. TassaneeyakulW. Tassaneeyakul 2626

DNA damageDNA damage

1. Ionizing radiation: ss or ds breaks

2. Nonionizing radiation (UV): pyr

dimers

3. Chemicals: base pair alteration3.1 Directly damage

3.1.1 adduct (covalent binding) e.g. aflatoxin

epoxide, benzo[a]pyrene (bulky)

3.1.2 alkylating e.g. cytotoxic drug

3.2 Indirectly e.g. intercalate between ds

4. Endogenous agents: oxygen/ROS

W. TassaneeyakulW. Tassaneeyakul 2727

DNA repairDNA repair

Extensive damage apoptosis

Less damage repair

Base excision repairNucleotide excision repairDS break repair:

homologous recombinationnonhomologous end-joining

Mismatch repair

W. TassaneeyakulW. Tassaneeyakul 2828

Formation of gene mutations.

Radiomimetic mutagens: effect all phase of cell replication e.g. bleomycin, 8-ethoxycaffeine.

Nonradiomimetic mutagens: effect only at S-phase.

Somatic vs. germ cells• In somatic cells may lead to neoplasia or

malformation.• In germ cells may transmit to phenotype

alteration in the next generation.

W. TassaneeyakulW. Tassaneeyakul 2929

Consequences of gene mutation

1. Silent

2. Missense

3. Nonsense

4. Frame-shift (addition or

deletion).
