Gene Transfer: How New Strains Arise and BiotechnologyWhat special mechanisms allow bacteria to swap genes between cells? • Gene Transfer and Recombination • Donor and recipient; recombination • Prokaryotic Gene Transfer • Transformation • Transduction: Bacteriophage transfer • Conjugation • Plasmids: F factors, R factors • Eukaryotic Gene Recombination • Viral Gene Changes • Application of DNA Biotechnology • Fast, inexpensive, ethical methods • Strategies of Gene Manipulation/Analysis • Recombinant DNA and Cloning • Restriction enzymes • Steps of Cloning the Insulin Gene • Making many Copies: Polymerase Chain Reaction • DNA Fingerprinting • Genetic sequencing
Recombination Produces New Genotypes Recipient DNA Donor DNA Genotype: abcde Genotype: aBcde (now has a new phenotype or ability, like being able to use a sugar it could not before) Figure 8.25
Transformation: Absorption of Free DNA In a lab setting, many bacterial species are not “competent” to take up donor DNA. They are incubated in CaCl2 to make them competent and then heat shocked so they will suck up DNA fragments from the medium. Figure 8.24
Plasmids: Autonomously Replicating Extrachromosomal DNA Fertility (F) factor is a plasmid that can direct the formation of a sex pilus and DNA transfer by conjugation
Conjugation: Simple F+ to F- Transfer Figure 8.27a
Conjugation: Creation of an Hfr Cell Figure 8.27b
Conjugation: Hfr to F- cell Figure 8.27c
Transduction Phage protein coat Bacterial chromosome Recombinant Bacterial DNA Donor bacterial DNA Recipient bacterial DNA Phage DNA Recipient cell Recombinant cell Figure 8.28

Genetic Engineering Involves Insertion of a Gene on a Plasmid
Safety Issues and Ethics • Avoid accidental release of supergerms • Genetically modified crops must be safe for consumption and for the environment • Who will have access to an individual's genetic information? • Do we have a right to move genes around, creating new life forms (i.e. “playing God”)?

Genetic Sequencing • Comparing the nucleotide sequences of rRNA genes(the 16S type) in prokaryotes (and eukaryotes) has helped show evolutionary relatedness • Used to separate prokaryotes and eukaryotes into 3 Domains in the late 1980s
