Chapter 16: Gene Technology I. Introduction A. New Techniques Developed to Manipulate DNA B. Techniques Can Be Applied to Alter an Organism's Genes II. Plasmids and the New Genetics A. First Human Gene Inserted into Bacteria 1. Interferon a. Increases to viral infection b. Rare, purification of small quantities is very expensive 2. Bacterial cells made to produce protein at high rate a. Masses of cells from original cells b. Each cell a miniature interferon factory c. produced in the same manner B. Beginning of Genetic Engineering 1. Ability to cut up DNA into 2. Recognize and cleave specific nucleotide 3. Segments inserted via III. Restriction Enzymes A. Bacteria Are Natural Source of Enzymes 1. Enzymes are 2. Recognize sequence, bind to DNA and cleave strand 3. allows mapping and reconstruction of the molecule 4. Two types of RE’s a. simple cross cut b. dyad symmetry 1) bases 2) cut 3) creates a) allows DNA from sources to be joined b) nicks are linked by forming a c. creates recombinant molecules B. Host/Vector 1. produces a large amount of in cells a. vector carries the 2. Most common a. plasmids – small chromosomes 1) clones pieces of DNA a) replicated in b) selectable marker – only cells with the plasmid 2) selection – only the desired survives 3) screening – all b. phages 1) larger and virus based a) require b) linear – middle is removed and replaced with C. Cohen and Boyer: First Artificial Bacterial Plasmid 1. Cut plasmid containing resistance transfer factor with EcoRI a. Contained replication origin and tetracycline resistance gene b.

DNA Library 1. a collection of fragment repeats of all of an organism a. plasmids with different b. phages with different c. genomic library – repeats of the entire in a vector d. cDNA library genes only 1) reverse transcriptase – makes DNA from 2) called 3) often used for genes in specific tissues or IV. Genetic Engineering A. Four Stages of a Genetic Engineering Experiment 1. Stage 1: a. cleave DNA into fragments b. differentiate fragments by different c. fragments are separated by size using 2. Stage 2: a. Fragments put into 3. Stage 3: a. DNA fragments are introduced into cells, usually b. each cell reproduces forming a that contains the 4. Stage 4: a. Identify clone line containing fragment of interest b. Among most difficult and critical steps B. Preliminary Screening of Clones 1. Eliminate bacteria not containing proper DNA fragment 2. Use genes conferring 3. Eliminate bacteria without vehicle a. Culture clones on medium containing b. Only bacteria to antibiotic will grow on it 4. Eliminate bacteria with vehicle, but lacking fragment a. Use vector with gene that enables cell to metabolize X-gal sugar 1) Metabolism of X-gal produces blue product 2) Cells with vector and functional gene will turn C. Getting Enough DNA to Work With: 1. Produce of DNA by adding 2. PCR used to sequences or sequences as primers to cleaved DNA 3. Five steps in PCR process a. 1) Primer of synthetic nucleotides mixed with DNA fragment 2) Temperature of mixture increased to 980 C b. 1) Solution cooled to 60¯ C 2) Single strands of DNA reassociate into double strands 3) Fragment base-pairs with complementary primer nucleotide 4) Part of fragment still single stranded c. 1) Heat stable DNA polymerase added along with supply of all four 2) Polymerase rest of fragment as in DNA replication 3) of original now exist d. 1) Repeat heating and cooling in short cycles 2) Each cycle amount of DNA 3) After twenty cycles one fragment can become more than one 4. PCR allows investigation of samples of DNA 5. Has had enormous impact on all aspects of biology D. Identifiying DNA – Southern Blot 1. Southern blot technique fig 19.8 a. Fragments spread apart by b. Gel blotted with , DNA transfers to sheet c. Probe poured onto nitrocellulose sheet d. Only fragments with proper gene with probe e. Probe may be radioactive chemical E. Analysis of restriction fragment length polymorphisms a. a point mutation, sequence repetition, and transposons with or withour end recognition sites and will alter the of the DNA fragment 1) DNA from different individuals rarely have the same and distribution b. Cut DNA samples with particular restriction 1) Separate fragments according to with electrophoresis . 2)Use to identify fragments 3) Obtain in gel c. Called 1) Used in 2) Used as 3) using several probes, identity is established or ruled out V. Bio technology: A Scientific Revolution A. Pharmaceuticals 1. Most obvious commercial application of gene technology 2. Bacteria can produce gene products in a. Several forms of b. Manufacture valuable nonhuman enzymes 3. Produce medically important proteins a. : regulate blood pressure, kidney function b. Tissue plasminogen activator: 4. Must separate desired protein from bacterial proteins a. Time-consuming and expensive b. Produce RNA transcripts of genes c. Make proteins directly in cell-free culture B. Piggyback Vaccines 1. Subunit vaccines for herpes virus and hepatitis viruses a.
