Summary

This document is a lesson on genetics, covering topics like dominant alleles, heterozygous, homozygous genotypes, phenotypes, and different types of genetic mutations. It also discusses the central dogma of molecular genetics, the structure of DNA, and the various applications of biotechnology. The lesson also tackles different genetic disorders, like Klinefelter Syndrome.

If homozygous dominant is crossed to a heterozygous, what are the phenotypes and genotypes? In corn, purple kernels (P) are dominant over yellow kernels (p), and smooth kernels (S) are dominant over shrunken kernels (s). Cross a plant that is heterozygous for both traits (PpSs) with a plant that is homozygous purple and smooth (PPSs). DNA STRUCTURE codes for your genes (traits) made of repeating subunits called nucleotides DNA STRUCTURE DNA is stored DNA is replicated DNA is expressed DNA is diversified CENTRAL DOGMA OF MOLECULAR GENETICS THE WATSON-CRICK DNA MODEL: a DOUBLE HELIX James Watson Francis Crick Carry the information that GENES determines your traits NUCLEIC ACID-Storage and expression of genetic information. DNA RNA DNA-carries genetic instructions in all living things. RNA- principally involved in the synthesis of proteins, carrying the messenger instructions from DNA. REPLICATION: Identical copies of their genetic material for growth and repair. TRANSCRIPTION: the first step in gene expression. It involves copying a gene's DNA sequence to make an RNA molecule. TRANSLATION: second major step in gene expression, the mRNA is "read" according to the genetic code, which relates the DNA sequence to the amino acid sequence in proteins TRANSLATION: GENETIC MUTATIONS GENETIC MUTATIONS GERMLINE SOMATIC MUTATION MUTATION BASED ON CHROMOSOME NUMBER BASED ON CHROMOSOME STRUCTURE BASED ON NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE This is a change in a single nucleotide base in the DNA sequence. There are two types: Transition: One purine (A or G) is replaced by another purine, or one pyrimidine (C or T) is replaced by another pyrimidine. Transversion: A purine is replaced by a pyrimidine, or a pyrimidine is replaced by a purine. This is a more specific type of point mutation. BASED ON NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE This occurs when nucleotides are inserted or deleted from the DNA sequence, causing a shift in the reading frame of the gene. It alters the entire amino acid sequence from that point forward, potentially producing a nonfunctional protein. A type of point mutation where a purine (A or G) is swapped with a pyrimidine (C or T), or vice versa, resulting in a change in the structure of the DNA. BASED ON NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE BASED ON NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE BASED ON NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE CAUSES OF MUTATIONS Infectious agent Radiation Chemicals Klinefelter Syndrome XYY Syndrome Trisomy X Syndrome Turner’s Syndrome Turner’s Syndrome GENETIC DISORDER GENETIC DISORDER: sickle cell anemia GENETIC DISORDER: phenylketonuria GENETIC DISORDER: HEMOPHILIA GENETIC DISORDER APPLICATION BIOTECHNOLOGY Biotechnology is technology that utilizes biological systems, living organisms or parts of this to develop or create different products.
