CALOOOCAN CITY SCIENCE HIGH SCHOOL BIOTRCHNOLOGY Central Dogma of the Cell 3rd Quarter, Week 1 List of key concepts Our Agenda - What is genome editing? - Gene Editing Applications for Today - Gene Editing on Plants & Animals - Health Risks of GMOs - Gene Editing on Humans - Moral Considerations Is eye color determined by genetics? Genotype Phenotype An organism’s genotype is An organism’s phenotype is all of the set of genes that it its observable characteristics — carries which are influenced both by its genotype and by the environment Central Dogma Overview Gene Expression: From Transcription to Translation Transcription "rewritten" Synthesis of a complementary strand of mRNA from a DNA template (DNA mRNA) Occurs inside the nucleus Only 1 DNA template strand is transcribed Translation Process by which the information carried by RNA is converted into the language of proteins. (mRNA proteins) Occurs in the cytoplasm Site of translations are ribosomes
