Predictive testing Tells a person if she carries a mutation that will cause, or put her at higher risk for, a disease later in life. Newborn screening Detects common disorders in newborns, where immediate treatment can prevent dangerous symptoms Carrier testing Tells a person whether or not he carries a mutation that could be passed on to his offspring. One can be a carrier, but not be at risk for a disease (as in recessive genes) ? ? ? ? Genetic Testing

Slide 55-

RFLP Analysis RFLP (Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism) analysis relies on the use of restriction enzymes These enzymes recognize specific DNA sequences (usually palindromes) and cut them…
Slide 56-

RFLP Analysis Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism means that there are polymorphisms (differences) between people in the number of restriction sites (and therefore the length of the cut fragments). This person has 4 fragments after restriction digest. This person has a mutation that eliminates one of the sites that the restriction enzyme cuts at. Therefore, this person has 3 bands, one of them being much larger than the rest. If this mutation was associated with a disease, a restriction digest would show that a carrier of the mutation had 3 fragments instead of 4
Slide 57-

RFLP Analysis
Slide 58-

RFLP Analysis Genomic DNA is very long and contains a lot of restriction enzyme cut sites PCR makes many copies of a small region of DNA, better for RFLP analysis

Issues with RFLP analysis Can not detect all mutations – the mutation has to coincide with a restriction enzyme cut site

How do we “look” at the DNA sequence? Sequencing RFLP analysis Probes Dot blot Microarray PCR Gel electrophoresis
Slide 64-

Probes DNA bases pair with complementary bases
Slide 65-

Probes Probe A probe is an a short fragment of DNA that is complementary to part of a longer DNA sequence. DNA strands can be separated with high heat. As the temperature is lowered, smaller fragments that have complementary sequences (probes) will base pair faster than the long original strands of DNA
Slide 66-

Probes The ability of a probe to bind depends on: *Its complementarity to the DNA strand it’s binding to… -Single base pair differences can affect binding depending on… *The stringency of the binding conditions -Temperature -Buffer conditions Low stringency High stringency

Dot Blot (A Southern blot without the gel…) A patient’s DNA (genomic DNA or PCR products) is denatured and spotted to a membrane…
Slide 69-

Dot Blot Membrane is washed in a solution that contains radioactively labeled probe Probe binds to complementary sequence
Slide 70-

Dot Blot Membrane is washed in a solution that contains radioactively labeled probe Excess probe is washed off – only probe bound to DNA on the membrane remains Probe binds to complementary sequence
Slide 71-

Dot Blot The membrane is exposed to autoradiography film.. Therefore, wherever there is radioactive probe, the film will be exposed…
Slide 72-

Dot Blot The membrane is exposed to autoradiography film.. Therefore, wherever there is radioactive probe, the film will be exposed… And a black dot will be developed where the probe was…
Slide 73-

Dot blot to diagnose cystic fibrosis (CF) Normal Normal probe Mutant probe CF patient (homozygous mutant) CF carrier (heterozygous mutant) DNA from a patient is spotted out twice, one will be used with a probe complementary to the normal sequence, the other will be used with a probe that is complementary to a mutated sequence. Since a heterozygote has one copy of the normal gene and one copy of the abnormal gene, both probes can bind, but only half as much binds, making the dot lighter.
Slide 74-

Issues with dot blots Can be used to test patient for multiple mutations Single base pair mutations may be hard to detect with dot blots
Slide 75-

How do we “look” at the DNA sequence? Sequencing RFLP analysis Probes Dot blot Microarray PCR Gel electrophoresis
Slide 76-

Microarray (High throughput dot blots. Allows for testing of many different mutations…) Microarrays start with a “chip” on which is spotted many different probes for different mutations. Each dot represents a different probe. If this were a dot blot, it would be called a “reverse dot blot” because the PROBE is spotted, rather than the DNA.
Slide 77-

Microarray (High throughput dot blots. Allows for testing of many different mutations…) The chip is treated much like a southern or a dot blot, except it is washed with a patient’s DNA (fragmented with restriction enzymes, denatured and labeled with a flourescent dye), and it automated.
Slide 78-

Microarray Binds to a probe for a CF mutation Binds to a probe for a colon-cancer susceptibility mutation Binds to a probe for a breast-cancer susceptibility mutation If a patient’s DNA binds to spotted probes, a computer detects this by the measuring the intensity of the flourescence emanating from that spot. A homozygote for a CF mutation will have a more intense spot than a heterozygote for the same mutation
