Genetic Engineering • This is a new technology used to change the genetic instructions in individuals
Why would you want to change the genetic instructions in an organism? • To allow the organism to do something new • Ex. Insert a gene into crops to allow them to make a protein to fight of a fungus • For gene therapy • A defective gene is replaced with a “good” gene
Objective:You will be able to describe how DNA is removed from one cell and added to another cell. Do Now: • Read all of p. 327 • Define transformation • What is a plasmid?
1. Copy the following series of DNA nucleotides onto a sheet of paper. GTACTAGGTTAACTGTACTATCGTTAACGTAAGCTACGTTAACCTA 2. Look carefully at the series, and find this sequence of letters: GTTAAC. It may appear more than once. 3. When you find it, divide the sequence in half with a mark of your pencil. You will divide it between the T and the A. This produces short segments of DNA. How many occurrences of the sequence GTTAAC can you find? Interest Grabber continued Section 13-2

Mixed DNA • When you combine DNA from two individuals, we call it recombinant DNA
Objective: You will be able to explain how gel electrophoresis separates pieces of DNA. • Read the section named “The tools of molecular Biology” on p. 322-323 • How is DNA cut? • How is DNA separated?
Use of Restriction Enzymes • Restriction enzymes cut DNA whenever they see a specific sequence of bases. • The pieces of cut DNA are called restriction fragments • Each person has a different DNA sequence • So restriction enzymes will cut each person’s DNA into different sized pieces.
We can use a process called gel electrophoresis to separate the pieces
Gel Electrophoresis • Moves DNA because it is negative • Separates DNA fragments based on size • The smaller the fragment the farther it will move • Can compare DNA from individuals

Objective: You will be able to explain how selective breeding can be used to improve offspring. Do Now • Read all of page 310 • Define selective breeding • Define hybridization
Interest Grabber The tomatoes in your salad and the dog in your backyard are a result of selective breeding.
Objective: You will be able to describe the process of cloning. • How can a sheep that is 12 years old have a twin that is 4 years old?
Flowchart Section 13-4 Cloning A body cell is taken from a donor animal. An egg cell is taken from a donor animal. The nucleus is removed from the egg. The body cell and egg are fused by electric shock. The fused cell begins dividing, becoming an embryo. The embryo is implanted into the uterus of a foster mother. The embryo develops into a cloned animal.
A donor cell is taken from a sheep’s udder. Section 13-4 These two cells are fused using an electric shock. Donor Nucleus An egg cell is taken from an adult female sheep. Fused Cell Egg Cell The nucleus of the egg cell is removed. Foster Mother Embryo The embryo develops normally into a lamb—Dolly The fused cell begins dividing normally. The embryo is placed in the uterus of a foster mother. Cloned Lamb
