Genetics and Biotechnology
Section 1: Applied Genetics
Section 2: DNA Technology
Section 3: The Human Genome
The process by which desired traits of certain plants and animals are selected and passed on to their future generations is called selective breeding.
Selective Breeding
Genetics and Biotechnology
Applied Genetics
Section 1
Hybridization
Genetics and Biotechnology
Hybrid organisms can be bred to be more disease-resistant, to produce more offspring, or to grow faster.
A disadvantage of hybridization is that it is time consuming and expensive.
Applied Genetics
Section 1
Inbreeding
Genetics and Biotechnology
The process in which two closely related organisms are bred to have the desired traits and to eliminate the undesired ones in future generations
Pure breeds are maintained by inbreeding.
A disadvantage of inbreeding is that harmful recessive traits also can be passed on to future generations.
Applied Genetics
Section 1
A test cross involves breeding an organism that has the unknown genotype with one that is homozygous recessive for the desired trait.
Genetics and Biotechnology
Test Cross
Applied Genetics

Technology that involves manipulating the DNA of one organism in order to insert the DNA of another organism, called exogenous DNA.
Genetics and Biotechnology
DNA Technology
Section 2
Genetically engineered organisms are used
Genetics and Biotechnology
to study the expression of a particular gene.
to investigate cellular processes.
to study the development of a certain disease.
to select traits that might be beneficial to humans.

DNA Tools
Genetics and Biotechnology
An organism’s genome is the total DNA in the nucleus of each cell.
DNA tools can be used to manipulate DNA and to isolate genes from the rest of the genome.
DNA Technology
Section 2
Genetics and Biotechnology
Scientists use restriction enzymes as powerful tools for isolating specific genes or regions of the genome.
DNA Technology
Section 2
Restriction enzymes recognize and bind to specific DNA sequences and cleave the DNA within the sequence.
Genetics and Biotechnology
The ends of the DNA fragments, called sticky ends, contain single-stranded DNA that is complementary.
DNA Technology
Section 2
EcoRI specifically cuts DNA containing the sequence GAATTC.
Genetics and BiotechnologySection 2
Genetics and Biotechnology
An electric current is used to separate DNA fragments according to the size of the fragments in a process called gel electrophoresis.
When an electric current is applied, the DNA fragments move toward the positive end of the gel.
The smaller fragments move farther faster than the larger ones.
DNA Technology
Section 2
The unique pattern created based on the size of the DNA fragment can be compared to known DNA fragments for identification.
Genetics and Biotechnology
The newly generated DNA molecule with DNA from different sources is called recombinant DNA.
DNA Technology
Section 2
Genetics and Biotechnology
To make a large quantity of recombinant plasmid DNA, bacterial cells are mixed with recombinant plasmid DNA.
Some of the bacterial cells take up the recombinant plasmid DNA through a process called transformation.
DNA Technology
Section 2
Genetics and Biotechnology
Large numbers of identical bacteria, each containing the inserted DNA molecules, can be produced through a process called cloning.
DNA Technology
Section 2
Genetics and Biotechnology
To understand how DNA is sequenced, scientists mix an unknown DNA fragment, DNA polymerase, and the four nucleotides—A, C, G, T in a tube.
DNA Technology
Section 2
Genetics and Biotechnology
Each nucleotide is tagged with a different color of fluorescent dye.
Every time a modified fluorescent-tagged nucleotide isincorporated into the newly synthesized strand, the reaction stops.
DNA Technology
Section 2
Genetics and Biotechnology
The sequencing reaction is complete when the tagged DNA fragments are separated by gel electrophoresis.

Gene Splicing
The Human Genome Project
The goal of the Human Genome Project (HGP) was to determine the sequence of the approximately three billion nucleotides that make up human DNA and to identify all of the approximately 20,000–25,000 human genes.
Genetics and Biotechnology
The Human Genome
Section 3
Sequencing the Genome
Each of the 46 human chromosomes was cleaved.
Genetics and Biotechnology
These fragments were combined with vectors to create recombinant DNA, cloned to make many copies, and sequenced using automated sequencing machines.
Computers analyzed the overlapping regions to generate one continuous sequence.
The Human Genome
Section 3
Genetics and Biotechnology
Decoding the sequence of the human genome can be compared toreading a book that was printed in code.
The Human Genome
Section 3
Less than two percent of all of the nucleotides in the human genome code for all the proteins in the body.
Genetics and Biotechnology
The genome is filled with long stretches of repeated sequences that have no direct function.
These regions are called noncoding sequences.
The Human Genome
Section 3
DNA Fingerprinting
Genetics and Biotechnology
Protein-coding regions of DNA are almost identical among individuals.
The long stretches of noncoding regions of DNA are unique to each individual.
DNA fingerprinting involves separating these DNA fragments to observe the distinct banding patterns that are unique to every individual.
The Human Genome
Section 3
Identifying Genes
Genetics and Biotechnology
Researchers have identified genes by scanning the sequence for Open Reading Frames (ORFs).
ORFs contain at least 100 codons that begin with a start codon and end with a stop codon.
The Human Genome
Section 3
Bioinformatics
Genetics and Biotechnology
Creating and maintaining databases of biological information
Finding genes in DNA sequences of various organisms and developing methods to predict the structure and function of newly discovered proteins
The Human Genome

Section 3
Genetics and BiotechnologySection 3
Genetics and Biotechnology
Variations in the DNA sequence that occur when a single nucleotide in the genome is altered are called single nucleotide polymorphisms or SNPs.
The Human Genome
Section 3
Regions of linked variations in the human genome are known as haplotypes.
Genetics and Biotechnology
Assembling the HapMap involves identifying groups of SNPs in a specific region of DNA.
The Human Genome
Section 3
The HapMap will enable geneticists to take advantage of how SNPs and other genetic variations are organized on chromosomes.
