About This Presentation

Description : Check out this medical PowerPoint presentation titled "Genomics, Proteomics and Genetic Engineering".
This medical PowerPoint presentation talks about Genomics, proteomics, and genetic engineering, three related fields that deal with the study and manipulation of genetic information at various levels.
Genomics is the study of the structure, function, and evolution of genomes, which are the complete sets of DNA within an organism. Genomics involves the use of various techniques, such as DNA sequencing, to determine the sequence of nucleotides in DNA and to analyze the function and interaction of genes within a genome.
Proteomics is the study of the structure, function, and interaction of proteins, which are the molecular machines that perform most of the work in cells. Proteomics involves the use of various techniques, such as mass spectrometry, to identify and quantify the proteins in a sample and to study their properties and interactions.
Genetic engineering is the manipulation of genetic material to produce new traits or to modify existing ones in an organism. Genetic engineering involves the use of various techniques, such as gene editing using CRISPR-Cas9, to make precise changes to the DNA sequence of an organism. Genetic engineering is used in a variety of fields, including agriculture, medicine, and biotechnology.

2 Genomics and Proteomics • The field of genomics deals with the DNA sequence, organization, function, and evolution of genomes • Proteomics aims to identify all the proteins in a cell or organism including any posttranslationally modified forms, as well as their cellular localization, functions, and interactions • Genomics was made possible by the invention of techniques of recombinant DNA, also known as gene cloning or genetic engineering
Slide 3-

3 Genetic Engineering In genetic engineering, the immediate goal of an experiment is to insert a particular fragment of chromosomal DNA into a plasmid or a viral DNA molecule This is accomplished by breaking DNA molecules at specific sites and isolating particular DNA fragments DNA fragments are usually obtained by the treatment of DNA samples with restriction enzymes Cloning from mRNA molecules depends on an unusual polymerase, reverse transcriptase, which can use a single-stranded RNA molecule as a template and synthesize a complementary DNA (cDNA)
Slide 4-

4 cDNA Cloning The resulting full-length cDNA contains an uninterrupted by introns coding sequence for the protein of interest If DNA sequence is known at both ends of the cDNA for design of appropriate primers, amplification of the cDNA produced by reverse transcriptase is possible by reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR)
Slide 5-

5 Bioinformatics Rapid automated DNA sequencing was instrumental in the success of the Human Genome Project, an international effort begun in 1990 to sequence the human genome and that of a number of organisms However, a genomic sequence is like a book using an alphabet of only four letters, without spaces or punctuation. Identifying genes and their functions is a major challenge The annotation of genomic sequences at this level is one aspect of bioinformatics, defined broadly as the use of computers in the interpretation and management of biological data
Slide 6-

6 Functional Genomics Genomic sequencing has made possible a new approach to genetics called functional genomics, which focuses on genome-wide patterns of gene expression and the mechanisms by which gene expression is coordinated DNA microarray (or chip) - a flat surface about the size of a postage stamp with up to 100,000 distinct spots, each containing a different immobilized DNA sequence suitable for hybridization with DNA or RNA isolated from cells growing under different conditions DNA microarrays are used to estimate the relative level of gene expression of each gene in the genome

11 Reverse Genetics Mutation has traditionally provided the raw material needed for genetic analysis. The customary procedure has been to use a mutant phenotype to recognize a mutant gene and then to identify the wildtype allele and its normal function Recombinant DNA technology has made possible another approach, often called reverse genetics, in which wildtype genes are cloned, intentionally mutated in specific ways, and introduced back into the organism to study the phenotypic effects of the mutations

13 Gene Targeting The procedure for introducing mutations into specific genes is called gene targeting Gene targeting in embryonic stem cells involves homologous recombination between target gene in vector and target gene in genome Target gene in vector contains unrelated DNA so that recombination disrupts function of targeted gene Cells with targeted gene mutations can be selected by including an selectable marker in the sequences that are incorporated into the genome
Slide 14-

14 Transgenic Animals Germ-line transformation involves the insertion of genes into the reproductive cells of an organism, which permanently alters the genetic content of the individual and all offspring = transgenic animals Transgenic animals are used to study the functions of specific genes in development or disease processes

15 Applied Genetic Engineering Crop plants with improved nutritional qualities can be created Animal growth rate can be genetically engineered Engineered microbes can help degrade toxic waste The production of useful proteins is a primary impetus for recombinant DNA
Slide 16-

16 Biomedical Applications Recombinant DNA technology is used to produce large amounts of medically important proteins Animal viruses such as retroviruses may prove useful vectors for gene therapy to treat single gene disorders Recombinant DNA probes detect mutant genes in hereditary disease A major breakthrough in disease prevention would come through the development of synthetic vaccines produced by recombinant DNA
