alteration of a genomic sequence. It may be divided into two categories: 1) Point/ Gene Mutation 2) Chromosomal Mutation Mutations may either be advantageous or disadvantageous and are not all inherently negative Point/ Gene Mutation They occur at a single locus on a chromosome. It results in a change to the nucleotides on DNA molecules whether they are replaced‚ shifted or a new one/set is added. Gene mutations may be divided into the following categories: 1) Duplication 2) Addition

In the tragedy Othello‚ by William Shakespeare the character traits and styles of both Iago and Othello are reverent to the plot and themes of the play. In Act III Scene three‚ the discussion between the two regarding Desdemona’s fidelity illustrates Othello’s confidence in his relationships with both his wife Desdemona and Iago. That same passage also displays the deceptive conscience of Iago‚ who is planning to take advantage of Othello’s trust. Othello in particular is the most famous example

WHAT IS GENE THERAPY? Gene therapy is the transfer of recombinant DNA into an individual’s body cells‚ with the intent to correct a genetic defect or treat a disease. The transfer occurs by the way of lipid clusters or genetically engineered viruses‚ inserts an unmutated gene into an individual’s chromosomes. It is basically a method for fixing defective genes that cause diseases. As Starr‚ Evers & Starr (2013) stated‚ there are over 15‚000 serious genetic disorders in the world. Most of

Gene Cloning Clone: A group of identical cells or organisms To clone a gene: 1) Insert the gene into a vector that can carry the into a host cell 2) Ensure that it will replicate there 3) Insertion is carried out by cutting the vector and the DNA to be inserted with the same restriction endonuclease to ensure that both have the same "sticky ends" Vector for cloning the bacteria come from two major types: (1) Plasmids‚ and (2) Phages Recombinant DNA Technology A) It was developed in

Describing theories TASK 1(P1) Introduction The theory I have chosen to discuss is the theory of inheritance‚ which is attributed largely to Gregor Mendel who lived from 1822 to 1884 and was considered to be a mathematical scientist who introduced the science of genetics. Observation During the period of 1858 to 1866‚ Mendel observed the different characteristics that where inherited by living creatures. He done this by breading garden peas in his monastery garden and analyzing the offspring

multiple cloning site (MCS) which is artificially implanted by adding a polylinker sequence to it. The pUC19 plasmid is also altered by inserting a gene that codes for beta-lactamase which confers resistance to the antibiotic ampicillin (Read and Strachan 2011). The MCS occupies the 5’ end of the gene lacZ (Sherwood‚ Willey and Woolverton 2012). This gene codes for only the alpha-peptide of beta-galactosidase‚ an enzyme used to break down the disaccharide lactose into glucose and galactose (Read and
