Dr. Severino Antinori, an Italian embryologist, fires up the press in 2001 after announcing plans to clone the first human to help infertile couples have children. He claimed one of his patients was carrying a clone, but he failed to confirm his tale or produce the child. His comments launched a debate over the ethics of cloning human beings; countries like Britain and South Korea have since made it illegal to clone people, while the U.S. Congress has yet to ban the process.
Not to be outdone, Chinese researchers are perfecting cloning techniques in the hope of using the procedure to preserve the country's beloved panda species. For practice, they began with more common species, including goats like Yangyang (above). Cloning remains a tricky process; only 2%-5% of the eggs that start out as clones develop into live animals. The good news is that once they survive past the first year, clones like Yangyang, celebrating her sixth birthday, are relatively healthy.

Scientists: Regulate Fertility Clinics To Prevent Babies with New Genes
By Robin Eisner
N E W Y O R K, May 18 — Scientists are calling for the immediate regulation of fertility clinics to prevent the birth of any future gene-altered babies, the first of which was reported earlier this year. STORY HIGHLIGHTS Fertility Method Creates Gene-Altered Babies Extra Genes From Mitochondria Social and Safety Consequences of Technology
In March, a team of fertility specialists at the Institute for Reproductive Medicine and Science of St. Barnabas, in West Orange, N.J., reported "the first case of human … genetic modification resulting in normal healthy children."
Fertility Method Creates Gene-Altered Babies
The group used a method that extracted cellular material from a donor woman's egg cell and transferred it into an infertile woman's egg. This material allowed the woman's egg to become fertile.
The donor egg contained DNA from mitochondria, little organs inside the cell that create the energy to do life's work. The group believes that problems with the mitochondria prevented the infertile women from becoming pregnant.
Mitochondria contain only about 0.03 percent of a cell's DNA, but that's enough that they can make copies of themselves when the cells divide. The other 99.97 percent of a cell's DNA comes from the nucleus and the 23 pairs of chromosomes.
The group says that transferring this mitochondrial DNA into the recipient eggs resulted in the birth of 30 babies, the first of which was born in 1997.
Extra Genes From Mitochondria
In March, the group reported for the first time in the medical journal Human Reproduction that genetic tests on two babies showed they had DNA from three parents: Two babies born with this method actually had mitochondrial genes from the donor mom, as well as chromosomal genes from the mother and father.
This extra-parental mitochondrial DNA could be transferred to the next generation.
Scientists in the latest issue of the journal Science are calling for the regulation of fertility clinics to prevent this practice from continuing.
"No research or clinical application involving humans should proceed that have the direct or indirect potential to cause inheritable genetic modification in either the public or private sector," unless it is reviewed by already existing federal regulators or a new body, wrote Mark S. Frankel and Audrey Chapman.
Both authors preside over public policy programs at the American Association for the Advance of Science, which publishes Science.
The two authors warn that efforts to modify genes transmitted to future generations could bring about both a medical and social revolution.
Social and Safety Consequences of Technology
"The dilemma is that inheritable genetic modification techniques developed for normal therapeutic purposes are also likely to be suitable for genetic alterations intended to improve what are already 'normal' genes," they write.
They warn that in a market economy the division between the haves and have-nots would increase if those who could pay could add "inherited advantage to the benefits of nurture and education already enjoyed by the affluent."
Safety concerns are also paramount, the authors say. It remains unclear how future generations with such genetic changes would fare.
"We have little experience and no evidence of long-term safety of inheritable genetic modification, whether intended or inadvertent," they write.
"There has not even been public consideration of how one would proceed in determining safety across generations. We should begin establishing an oversight process now so that we can make informed and reasoned choices about the future."
Geneticists had taken the luciferase gene from a firefly and inserted it into a tobacco plant. This meant that when the plant was fed with luciferin the result was a plant that glows in the dark!

Animation
Different restriction fragments are found at different frequencies within different
people
For example fragment A may be found in 50% of the population, fragment B might be found in 10% of the population and fragment C might be found in 3% of the population
RFLP = restriction fragment length polymorphism
• If a person has fragment A, B and C in his DNA fingerprint and the fragments are found in these percentages in the population A= 50%, B= 10% and C=3%
What is the chance that someone else has the same 3 fragments in their fingerprint?
RFLP analysis identifies the presence of a specific gene by looking for an associated RFLP marker (recognition site) near the allele.
Animation
Certain restriction fragments can be looked for in a person’s fingerprint by adding a radioactive or dye labeled DNA probe that is complementary to the DNA of the fragment
Why is a DNA fingerprint NOT the same as a real fingerprint?
•ANSWER= A x B x C = .5 x .10 x .03 = .0015 or .15% or 1 out of 667 people
•Testing more fragments gives a smaller %

Mapping Genomes3 steps
• Genetic (linkage) mapping (this was covered earlier –remember in the fly lab, the black body with vestigial wings genes were mapped using crossing over frequencies)
• Physical mapping
• DNA sequencing

Inactivated cold viruses can be used as a VECTOR to move the genes for ANTIGENS from other viruses into a person.
For example this virus might carry genes for the herpes surface protein. If this was injected into a person, he would make ANTIBODIES for the herpes proteins -thus giving him immunity to herpes.

ADA: The First Gene Therapy Trial
• A four-year old girl became the first gene therapy patient on September 14, 1990 at the NIH Clinical Center. She has adenosine deaminase (ADA) deficiency, a genetic disease which leaves her defenseless against infections (SCIDS). White blood cells were taken from her, and the normal genes for making adenosine deaminase were inserted into them. The corrected cells were reinjected into her. Dr. W. French Anderson helped develop this landmark clinical trial when he worked at the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute
Cystic Fibrosis
• CF causes the body to produce thick, sticky mucus that clogs the lungs, leads to infection, and blocks the pancreas, which stops digestive enzymes from reaching the intestine where they are required in order to digest food.
Cystic Fibrosis: A Single Gene Disease
• Mutations in a single gene - the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Regulator (CFTR) gene - causes CF. (autosomal recessive)
• In normal cells, the CFTR protein acts as a channel that allows cells to release chloride and other ions. But in people with CF, this protein is defective and the cells do not release the chloride. The result is an improper salt balance in the cells and thick, sticky mucus.
Gene Therapy Research Offers Promise of a Cure for Cystic Fibrosis
• In 1993, the first experimental gene therapy treatment was given to a patient with CF. Researchers modified a common cold virus to act as a delivery vehicle - or "vector"- carrying the normal genes to the CFTR cells in the airways of the lung.
Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) is an inherited retinal disease that causes severe visual impairment in infancy or early childhood. Current research on a gene transfer therapy may offer hope to people with a form of this disease

• The segment of DNA shown in the figure below has restriction sites I and II, which create restriction fragments A, B, and C. Which of the gels producedby electrophoresis shown below would represent the separation and identity of these fragments?
• This restriction fragment contains a gene whose recessive allele is lethal. The normal allele has restriction sites for the restriction enzyme PSTI at sites I and II. The recessive allele lacks restriction site I. An individual who had a sister with the lethal trait is being tested to determine if he is a carrier of that allele. Indicate which of these band patterns would be produced on a gel if he is a carrier (heterozygous for the gene)?
