Terminology
• Genetic engineering – direct manipulation of genetic material for practical purposes
• Biotechnology – use of living organisms or their components to make products for us
• Recombinant DNA – combining pieces of DNA from different organisms
• Gene cloning – making copies of DNA
![Page 3: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Making recombinant DNA
• Plasmids (small circular pieces of DNA in bacterial cells) are used to insert pieces of foreign DNA
![Page 4: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The DNA is cut using restriction enzymes
![Page 5: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
What are restriction enzymes?
• Restriction enzymes come from bacteria and recognize a particular pattern of DNA, often 4, 6 or 8 base pairs long, and then cut the DNA within this recognized sequence.
• Bacteria use these enzymes to kill off other competing bacteria by cutting up their DNA.
![Page 6: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Steps
1. Plasmid and DNA of gene of interest are isolated.
2. Both DNAs are cut with the same restriction enzyme.
3. “new” DNA is ligated into plasmid4. Recombinant plasmids are inserted
into bacterial cells.5. Plate bacteria on agar. Bacteria will
express new genes.

Plasmid Maps
![Page 23: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Plasmid MapsSometimes called restriction maps are graphical
representation of plasmids, that show the locations of major identifiable landmarks on DNA like restriction enzyme sites, genes of interest, plasmid length etc.
![Page 25: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

The collection of thousands of clones of bacteria containing recombinant plasmids is called a genomic library.
![Page 27: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• In molecular biology, plasmid (or restriction) maps are used as a reference to engineer plasmids.
• The plasmids are digested by enzymes chosen and the resulting samples are subsequently run on an electrophoresis gel.
![Page 28: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Our experiment: to transform E.coli with pGLO plasmid containing the jellyfish gene GFP to make them have the ability to glow
![Page 30: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

• To isolate only the cells containing the pGLO DNA, the plasmid contains the beta-lactamase gene which encodes for an ampicillin resistance (Ampr) protein.
• After the transformation, the cells are grown on a solid medium called an agar plate. This medium will contain the antibiotic ampicillin.
• In the presence of the ampicillin, only the bacteria containing the pGLO plasmid will have the Ampr protein which will break down the antibiotic, and be able to grow.
• This process is called antibiotic selection.
![Page 32: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

GRP has been used as tracers to see if the plasmid has been taken up by
the bacteria.

Ways to introduce
new genes into bacteria.
Conjugation – through tubes between bacteria Transformation – negative DNA taken upTransduction by bacteriophages or other virusesMutation
ALL of these introduce GENETIC VARIATION!

Nucleic Acid Hybridization
• Used to detect genes
• The DNA of the cell is denatured to produce single stranded DNA.
• The radioactive probe will hybridize (bond) with complementary bases if present.
• Probes can be radioactive isotopes or
flourescent dyes.
![Page 49: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
![Page 50: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
The radioactive probe is made by determining a short segment of the protein sequence, then "back translating" to the possible short DNA sequences called oligomers.
Then these DNA oligomers (known as "oligos") are radiolabeled, and applied to the blotted clones.
They should hybridize only to clones containing sequence encoding the desired protein.
![Page 51: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
How does this work?• Protein segment
gly – gly – ser – glutamic acid
• Look on Genetic Codon chart, find mRNA codons
GGU – GGU – UCU – GAA
• Make a radioactive DNA
(oligos)probe
CCA – CCA – AGA - CTT
![Page 52: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Expression of eukaryoticgenes in prokaryotes
• Use an expression vector with a prokaryotic promoter upstream from the location of the gene (ie operon)
• Create artificial genes without introns since bacteria do not have the machinery for eliminating introns.
• YACS
![Page 53: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
What are YACS?
• Yeast artificial chromosomes that carry foreign DNA.
• Yeast cells have plasmids that can act as vectors.

• In PCR, a heat-stable DNA polymerase is used, most commonly Taq Polymerase from the thermophilic microbe Thermus aquaticus.
• Thomas Brock discovered T. aquaticus from a hot spring at Yellowstone National Park.
![Page 61: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Applications of PCR
PCR has replaced cloning for many purposes, particularly the sequencing of DNA.
• It is faster and requires no vectors, which can mutate as they reproduce.
• It can be used forensically, to amplify tiny amounts of DNA from criminal evidence; or clinically, to detect DNA sequences linked to inherited disorders.

What is gel electrophoresis?
• A technique to separate DNA based on the movement of DNA fragments from neg to pos (DNA is neg).
• Smaller fragments travel farther.
• Samples are placed in gels.

In DNA fingerprinting
• Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are useful genetic markers
• These are single base-pair sites that vary in a population (most of our DNA is identical

Many genetic diseases are the result of a
polymorphism at a single locus.

• When a restriction enzyme is added, SNPs result in DNA fragments with different lengths, or restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP)
• Some polymorphisms cause disease, while some do not. Others indicate a predisposition to disease.

Short Tandem Repeats• Even more sensitive is the use of
genetic markers called short tandem repeats (STRs), which are variations in the number of repeats of specific DNA sequences
![Page 75: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
• The Human Genome Project has shown that there are tens of thousands of STR loci in human DNA.
• An individual inherits one copy of an STR from each parent,
![Page 76: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
D7S280 is one of the 13 core CODIS STR genetic loci. This DNA is found on human chromosome 7. The DNA sequence of a representative allele of this locus is shown below. The tetrameric repeat sequence of D7S280 is "gata". Different alleles of this locus have from 6 to 15 tandem repeats of the "gata" sequence. How many tetrameric repeats are present in the DNA sequence shown below?

If the genotypes of both parents are known, we use a Punnett Square to predict the possible phenotypes of their offspring. Each child inherits one allele of a given locus from each parent. Panel (a) - At the D21S11 locus, the children of Bob Blackett and wife
Anne can have four different genotypes. Son David is 28, 31. Daughter Katie is 29, 30. Panel (b) - Bob Blackett inherited the 31 allele from his mother, Norma. Therefore the 29 allele is paternal.
If Bob's paternal was not 29, what would be your conclusion?

Huntington’s Disease can be diagnosed by the number of CAG repeats
The data below shows the results of electrophoresis of PCR fragments amplified using probes for the site which has been shown to be altered in Huntington's
disease. The male parent, as shown by the black box, got Huntington's disease when he was 40 years old. His children include 6 (3,5,7,8,10,11) with Huntington's disease, and the age at which the symptoms first began is shown by the number
above the band from the PCR fragment.
What is the prognosis for
the normal children 4, 6,
and 9?

Sanger Sequencing
• Used to sequence short segments of DNA• Single-stranded fragments are incubated
with fluorescent-tagged short segments for DNA hybridization.
• When fragments hybridize with the tagged nucleotide, the hybridization stops.
• Fragments are electrophoresed and analyzed.

Analyzing Expression of Genes
• Northern Blotting – using radioactive probes to look for mRNA being produced
• RT-PCR – Reverse transcriptase-polylmerase chain reaction – makes cDNA from mRNAs and then PCRs the DNA for electrophoresis
• in situ hybridization – can locate specific mRNA’s in cells
![Page 83: Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering AP Biology Chapter 20](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649e0c5503460f94af5670/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
• Micro – arrays - Isolate mRNA from cells, make cDNA using reverse transcriptase, then uses cDNA to explore collections of genomic DNA to see if they hybridize

Determining Gene Function
• In vitro mutagenesis – changes made to cloned gene, gene returned to cell and it “knocks out” the normal gene. Then look for abnormalities.
• RNA interference (RNAi) – uses RNA to block translation of mRNA and see what happens.

Why Dolly died young 6 yrs
• Dolly's telomeres were found to be approximately 80% of the length they should be for a sheep her age.
• Also there is the concern of damaged DNA being carried into the clone

• In most nuclear transplantation studies, only a small percentage of cloned embryos have developed normally to birth
• Many epigenetic changes, such as acetylation of histones or methylation of DNA, must be reversed in the nucleus from a donor animal in order for genes to be expressed or repressed appropriately for early stages of development

Human Gene Therapy
• Gene therapy is the alteration of an afflicted individual’s genes
• Vectors, such as viruses, are used for delivery of genes into specific types of cells, for example bone marrow
• It may be difficult to target cells.• Gene therapy raises ethical questions,
such as whether human germ-line cells should be treated to correct the defect in future generations
