4. Cloning4. Cloning
4. Cloning4. Cloning
a. a. A clone is a cell or organism that is genetically identical; e.g., identical twins which result from separation of an embryo before differentiation occurs
b. Variable success has been realized in attempts to clone organisms, even mammals
c. Both ethical and physical barriers exist when cloning of humans is considered
4. Cloning4. Cloning
d. d. Basic process of cloning 1. nucleus is removed from an egg2. nucleus is removed from an adult somatic cell and
injected into the egg which had its nucleus removed3. the resulting cell is then grown in culture to produce a
blastocyst; i.e., an early embryo consisting of a ball of app. 200 cells
4. the blastocyst can then be used to produce an entire organism (reproductive cloning) or used to provide embryonic stem cells which can be grown in culture (therapeutic use)
5. Nuclear transplantation5. Nuclear transplantation
a. the process of cloning described above a. the process of cloning described above results from nuclear transplantation; i.e., a results from nuclear transplantation; i.e., a nucleus from a nucleus from a differentiated adult cell is adult cell is transplanted into a non-differentiated transplanted into a non-differentiated egg cellcell
b. nuclear transplantation experiments have b. nuclear transplantation experiments have resulted in clones of plants and animalsresulted in clones of plants and animals
5. Nuclear transplantation5. Nuclear transplantation
c. the resulting clones are genetically identical to c. the resulting clones are genetically identical to the donor parent regardless of the adult cell type the donor parent regardless of the adult cell type used as a donorused as a donor
d. differentiated adult cells must all have the same d. differentiated adult cells must all have the same DNA if clones result from nuclear transplantation DNA if clones result from nuclear transplantation regardless of the donor cell typeregardless of the donor cell type

e. e. adults have stem cells; e.g., bone marrow cells differentiate into different blood cell types and epidermal germ cells differentiate into different skin cell types
f. although adult stem cells are typically more difficult to work with, they provide a potential source of stem cells without destroying embryos
8. Cancer8. Cancer
a. a. cancer can be caused by mutations in genes that control cell growthb. genes that cause cancer are called oncogenes, these are usually
mutated genes that produce growth factor to stimulate cell division

2. Restriction 2. Restriction enzymes (fig 12.2)enzymes (fig 12.2)
a. enzyme = a substance, usually a protein, that catalyzes (facilitates) a reaction
b. restriction enzyme = an enzyme that recognizes a specific sequence of DNA and digests (cuts) the DNA at that recognition site
2. Restriction enzymes2. Restriction enzymes
c.c. the resultant pieces of DNA after the resultant pieces of DNA after digestiondigestion with a restriction fragment are with a restriction fragment are termed termed restriction fragments (if a linear (if a linear strand of DNA has two recognition sites, strand of DNA has two recognition sites, digestion will produce three restriction digestion will produce three restriction fragments) fragments)
