The Gene Lab 1. Introduction The purpose of this report is to inform dog breeders of a very common genetic disease known as Progressive retinal atrophy (PRA). The report will also inform buyers of the disease so they are aware of the disorder and they can check to dog’s pedigree for the disease. PRA could affect any dog‚ as a result of this it is recommended that the offspring should be examined by a board-certified veterinary ophthalmologist and screened for the existence of the disorder.

A particularly important category of genetic linkage has to do with the X and Y sex chromosomes. These not only carry the genes that determine male and female traits but also those for some other characteristics as well. Genes that are carried by either sex chromosome are said to be sex linked. Men normally have an X and a Y combination of sex chromosomes‚ while women have two X’s. Since only men inherit Y chromosomes‚ they are the only ones to inherit Y-linked traits. Men and women can get

11: How Genes are Controlled I. How and Why Genes are Regulated? A. Gene Expression in Differentiated Cells 1. What does it mean to say that the cells in your body are differentiated? It means that the cells in the body are specialized to do certain tasks with some genes in a cell turned off and some genes in the cell turned on. 2. The great differences among cell types is due to the selective expression of its genes. Define gene expression

A Right to Her Genes by Susannah Gal Department of Biological Sciences State University of New York at Binghamton and Jessie W. Klein Science Department Middlesex Community College “But‚ doctor‚ what should I do?” Michelle was sitting in her OB-GYN’s office‚ having just confronted him with the dilemma she was facing. “My mother died of breast cancer when I was little and now I find out that her mother‚ my grandmother‚ has bone cancer and my grandmother’s brother and my grandfather both have lung

genetic modification of existing genes in mammals by RNA interference is called Gene Knockdown. Gene Knockdown occurs by Messenger RNA (mRNA) being targeted so that it can no longer carry out its normal function. This happens by double stranded RNA (dsRNA) being introduced to the selected cell. The dsRNA then begins producing small interfering RNA (siRNA) which bind to the mRNA product of the target gene‚ and make it inactive. Double stranded RNA makes the targeted gene inactive by binding to an Argonaute

resistant pathogens through horizontal gene transfer. Located in the bacteria are plasmids. They are independent‚ self-duplicating‚ and allow bacteria to perform new functions/generate new products. Basically plasmids help their hosts to stop the action of antibiotics and become resistant. “Gene transfer must be integral and critical to the overall survival of bacteria‚ providing a way for them to adapt to difficult conditions” (Levy 2002‚ 83). Horizontal gene transfer can occur through conjugation

Internet challenges the right to freedom of expression. On the one hand‚ Internet empowers freedom of expression by providing individuals with new means of expressions. On the other hand‚ the free flow of information has raised the call for content regulation‚ not least to restrict minors’ access to potentially harmful information. This schism has led to legal attempts to regulate content and to new selfregulatory schemes implemented by private parties. The attempts to regulate content raise the question

Should Genes Be Patented? The issue of gene patenting sparked intense controversy throughout the nation that culminated with the Association for Molecular Pathology v. Myriad Genetics Supreme Court case‚ which concluded this past June. The case regarded Myriad Genetics‚ a molecular diagnostic company based in Salt Lake City‚ and its patents on genes that correlate with an increased risk of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. Prior to the ruling‚ the company’s possession of these patents entailed
