1 Protein Synthesis and Gene Expression § In the late 1970 s, genetic engineers began producing recombinant bovine growth hormone (r. BGH), insulin, and interferon (IFN) § Made by genetically engineered bacteria § The bacteria were given DNA that carries instructions for making BGH, Insulin, and IFN § In cows, BGH increases body size and milk production § Insulin reverses Type I diabetes § IFN reduces viral spread during infections © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
1 Protein Synthesis and Gene Expression: From Gene to Protein § Protein synthesis – the process of using instructions carried on a gene to create proteins. § Several steps are involved and require both DNA and RNA. § Gene – a sequence of DNA that encodes a protein § Protein – a large molecule composed of amino acids; its sequence is predicted from the gene sequence © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
1 Protein Synthesis and Gene Expression: From Gene to Protein § Review: DNA § Double-stranded § Each nucleotide composed of deoxyribose, phosphate, and nitrogenous base § 4 bases: adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine(G), and cytosine (C) © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.

1 Protein Synthesis and Gene Expression: From Gene to Protein § The flow of genetic information in a cell is DNA RNA protein (Central dogma) and occurs in 2 steps: § Transcription (DNA RNA) § Translation (RNA Protein) © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
1 Protein Synthesis and Gene Expression: Transcription § Transcription (DNA → RNA) occurs in the nucleus. § RNA polymerase binds to the promoter (control) region of the gene. § RNA polymerase zips down the length of gene, matching RNA nucleotides with complementary DNA nucleotides § This forms messenger RNA (m. RNA) § See this video (start at 2: 51): http: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=yq.

2 Producing Recombinant Proteins: Cloning a Gene Using Bacteria § r. BGH is a protein, and is coded by a specific gene. § Transfer of r. BGH gene to bacteria allows for growth under ideal conditions. § Bacteria can serve as “factories” for production of r. BGH. § Cloning of the gene is making copies of that gene outside of its native environment. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
2 Producing Recombinant Proteins: Cloning a Gene Using Bacteria § Restriction enzymes – Used by bacteria as a form of defense. Restriction enzymes cut DNA at specific sequences. They are important in biotechnology because they allow scientists to make precise cuts in DNA. § Plasmid – Small, circular piece of bacterial DNA that exists separate from the bacterial chromosome. Plasmids are important because they can act as a ferry to carry a gene into and out of cells. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
2 Producing Recombinant Proteins: Cloning a Gene Using Bacteria § Step 1. Remove the gene from the cow chromosome © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
2 Producing Recombinant Proteins: Cloning a Gene Using Bacteria § Step 2. Insert the BGH gene into the bacterial plasmid. This creates a clone of the gene. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
2 Producing Recombinant Proteins: Cloning a Gene Using Bacteria § Recombinant – Indicates material that has been genetically engineered: a gene that has been removed from its original genome and combined with another to change its genetic environment. § After step 2, the BGH is now referred to as recombinant BGH or r. BGH. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
2 Producing Recombinant Proteins: Cloning a Gene Using Bacteria § Step 3. Insert the recombinant plasmid into a bacterial cell © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
2 Producing Recombinant Proteins: Cloning a Gene Using Bacteria § About 1/3 of cows in the US are injected with r. BGH increases milk volume from cows by about 20%. § Here, r. BGH does not enter the milk, and thus does not modify the milk per se. § The same principles apply to other proteins. § Clotting proteins for hemophiliacs are produced using similar methods. § Insulin for diabetics is also produced in this way. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
2 Producing Recombinant Proteins: Cloning a Gene Using Bacteria § The use of recombinant genes to alter the properties of organisms (referred especially to foodsources) is defined as a genetically modified organism (GMO) § FDA approval is needed for any new food, including GMOs, that must be demonstrated to be safe for human or agricultural animal consumption § Natural food sources are generally recognized as safe (GRAS). © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
3 Genetically Modified Foods: Modifying Plants with the Ti Plasmid and Gene Gun § Transgenic organism – the result of the transfer of a gene from one organism to the genome of another, specifically to alter a phenotype. Also referred to as a genetically modified organism (GMO). § Benefits: Crops can be engineered for resistance to pests or drought, thus farmers can spray fewer chemicals, or irrigate less. § Concerns: § Pests can become resistant to chemicals or anti-pest proteins. § GM crops may actually lead to increased use of pesticides and herbicides. § GM crop plants may transfer genes to wild relatives § The flavor or nutritional value can be modified. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
4 Genetically Modified Humans: Stem Cells § Stem cells – undifferentiated cells, capable of growing in to many different kinds of cells and tissues § Stems cells might be used to treat degenerative diseases (tissue repair less perfect as cells age, leading to permanent dysfunction) such as Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s. § Using stem cells to produce healthy tissue is called therapeutic cloning. § Stem cells could also be used to grow specific tissues to treat burns, heart attack damage, or replacement cartilage in joints. § Some stems cells are totipotent, meaning they can become any other cell in the body. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
4 Genetically Modified Humans: Stem Cells § Therapeutic cloning may be combined with acellularized tissues § Original cells are removed from an organ, leaving only the tissue matrix § Stem cells are grown in the tissue matrix instead of in a tissue culture dish. § The reconstituted organ can be reintroduced into the body. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
4 Genetically Modified Humans: Human Genome Project § Human Genome Project – international effort to map the sequence of the entire human genome (~20, 000 – 25, 000 genes). § For comparative purposes, genomes of other model organisms (E. coli, yeast, fruit flies, mice) were also mapped. § It was sequenced using the technique of chromosome walking. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
4 Genetically Modified Humans: Gene Therapy § Gene therapy – replacement of defective genes with functional genes § Germ line gene therapy § Embryonic treatment § Embryo supplied with a functional version of the defective gene. § Embryo + cells produced by cell division have a functional version of gene. § Risk: all progeny affected by any side-effects § Somatic cell gene therapy – fix or replace the defective protein only in specific cells § Disadvantage: does not propagate to children © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
4 Genetically Modified Humans: Gene Therapy § Somatic cell therapy used as a treatment of SCID (severe combined immunodeficiency) § All somatic cells have limited lifetimes. § Therapy is not permanent and requires several treatments per year and follow-ups in the future © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
4 Genetically Modified Humans: Cloning Humans § Human “cloning” occurs naturally whenever identical twins are produced. § Cloning of offspring from adults has already been done with cattle, goats, mice, cats, pigs, and sheep. § Cloning is achieved through the process of nuclear transfer. § Nuclear transfer has been done with fertilized egg nucleus into enucleated cell – three person mating § Being tested to cure mitochondrial genetic diseases © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
