Phenylketonuria (PKU) • Autosomal recessive genetic disorder • characterized by a deficiency in the enzyme hepatic phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH • necessary to metabolize the amino acid phenylalanine to the amino acid tyrosine Genetic Disorders
Sickle Cell Anemia • Recessive • Mutation in hemoglobin gene • RBCs are crescent shaped
Cystic Fibrosis • Autosomal recessive disorder • Deficiency of an enzmye • harmful quantities of a fatty acid derivative called a ganglioside accumulate in the nerve cells of the brain • Common among Jewish descent
Tay-Sachs • Sex linked dominant disease • Mutation in a gene • Buildup of mucus affecting lungs, liver, pancreas, intestines • Common among Caucasian descent
Each kind of cell (ex. Skin, nerve, muscle) uses only some of the genetic information it contains if all the cells in your body have the same dna, how are they different?
A human liver cell and a human skin cell in the same person have the same genetic sequences. However, these cells are different because the liver cell (1) has more dominant traits than the skin cell (2) can reproduce but the skin cell cannot (3) carries out respiration but the skin cell does not (4) uses different genes than the skin cell

Project goals were to identify all the approximately 20,000-25,000 genes in human DNA determine the sequences of the 3 billion chemical base pairs that make up human DNA storethis information in databases improvetools for data analysis transfer related technologies to the private sector address the ethical, legal, and social issues (ELSI) that may arise from the project. Human genome project
13-year project coordinated by the U.S. Department of Energy and the National Institutes of Health Completed in 2003 WellcomeTrust (U.K.) became a major partner; additional contributions came from Japan, France, Germany, China, and others
Some current and potential applications of genome research include Molecular medicine Energy sources and environmental applications Risk assessment Bioarchaeology, anthropology, evolution, and human migration DNA forensics (identification) Agriculture, livestock breeding, and bioprocessing Benefits
