Identify individuals from unique genetic code
In every nucleated cell in the human body
Can be extracted from blood, semen, urine, bone, hair follicles, and saliva
![Page 3: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
In the nucleus of each cell are
46 chromosomes.
Each chromosome is made of long
strands of DNA wrapped
around proteins called histones.

A GENE IS A SEGMENT OF DNA THAT CONTAINS THE INSTRUCTION S TO MAKE A
PROTEIN
There are about 20,000-25,000 genes in the human genome. Most of your DNA (98%) does not code for proteins.
![Page 6: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
DNA structureDeoxyribonucleic Acid is a macromolecule containing the sugar deoxyribose.
It is a polymer made of two strands of repeating units called nucleotides.
Each nucleotide is made of three parts…a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base.
There are only four different nitrogenous bases… Adenine
ThymineCytosineGuanine

One strand of
nucleotides
![Page 10: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The hydrogen bonds are very weak, so the two strands can “unzip” allowing the base sequence to be “read” when the DNA copies itself, or when the gene’s instructions are used to create proteins.
![Page 11: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Every three bases codes
for one amino acid. A long
string of amino acids make up a
protein, and our proteins
that we make give us our
traits.

The order of the 3 billion base pairs is 99.9% identical in all humans. The unique 0.1% gives us incredible diversity.

Types of DNA
Nuclear found in the nucleus constitutes 23 pairs
of chromosomes inherited from both parents
each cell contains only one nuclei
Mitochondrial found in the
cytoplasm is inherited only
from mother each cell contains
hundreds to thousands of mitochondria
can be found in skeletal remains
![Page 14: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Nuclear DNA is present in the head of the sperm. Mitochondrial DNA is present in the tail. At conception, the head of the sperm enters the egg and unites with the nucleus. The tail falls off, losing the father’s mitochondrial DNA.

Typically blood and other bodily fluids provide DNA for forensic testing and determining a DNA
profile, or fingerprint.USES OF DNA FINGERPRINTING:
1. IDENTIFY POTENTIAL SUSPECTS2. CLEAR THE WRONGLY ACCUSED
3. IDENTIFY CRIME AND CATASTROPHE VICTIMS4. ESTABLISH PATERNITY
5. MATCH ORGAN DONORS AND RECIPIENTS
![Page 18: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
RFLP AnalysisRestriction FragmentLength Polymorphism
1. After isolating the DNA from the cell, restriction enzymes are used to “chop up” the DNA into small pieces (or DNA “fragments”). Different restriction enzymes recognize different DNA sequences and therefore cut the DNA at different places in the sequence. You end up with many fragments of different lengths (they’re polymorphic).
![Page 20: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
![Page 21: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
2. Now, the many fragments are separated by gel electrophoresis. A gel provides a barrier through which the DNA fragments can slowly travel. An electrical current draws the negatively charged DNA from one end of the gel to the other, but the polymorphic fragments don’t travel at the same speed, so they’re separated by size and charge.

Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)
• Make millions of copies of DNA from a small sample
• Quick and easy in the lab, DNA less susceptible to degradation
• Requires 50x less DNA than what is needed for RFLP
• Contaminant DNA will be amplified as well
![Page 26: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

![Page 28: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Short Tandem Repeats (STR)
Used more commonly than RFLP because:
• Takes less time
• Requires less of a sample size
• Is more exclusionary (eliminates more people as the source of the DNA)
![Page 29: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
STR’s are locations (loci) on the chromosome that contain short sequences
of 2 to 5 bases that repeat themselves in the DNA molecule. They are “markers” not found in the “coding” part of a gene.
![Page 30: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
THO1 One commonly used STR 5 – 11 repeats of A-A-T-G on chromosome 11 in
the introns of the tyrosine hydroxylase gene
There are 7 variants of THO1 in humans
![Page 31: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Short Tandem Repeats (STR)STR typing is visualized by peaks shown on a graph.
Each peak represents the size of the DNA fragment.

1. Probability of Identity
Is a measure of the likelihood that 2 random
individuals will have an
identical STR type
![Page 36: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
2. Probability is determined
By multiplying their frequencies
![Page 37: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Three Possible Outcomes
Match—The DNA profile appears the same. Lab will determine the frequency.
Exclusion—The genotype comparison shows profile differences that can only be explained by the two samples originating from different sources.
Inconclusive—The data does not support a conclusion as to whether the profiles match.

Thomas Jefferson (April 13, 1743–July 4, 1826)
Third president of the United States (1801–1809)
Principal author
of the Declaration of Independence and one of the most influential Founding Fathers for his promotion of the ideals of republicanism in the United States
![Page 54: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
WhenPresident John F. Kennedy welcomed forty-nine Nobel Prize winners to the White House in 1962 he said, "I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent and of human knowledge that has ever been gathered togetherat the White House– with the possible exceptionof when Thomas Jefferson dined alone.”
![Page 55: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Jefferson has been consistently ranked by scholars as one of the GREATEST
U.S.PRESIDENTS.
![Page 56: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Thomas Jefferson – an enigma Jefferson
owned many slaves over
his lifetime.
![Page 57: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
Some find it baffling
that Thomas Jefferson
owned slaves yet was
outspoken in saying that slavery was
immoral
and it should be abolished.
![Page 58: Chapter 12 DNA Analysis](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050723/56815f3e550346895dce121e/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Biographers point out thatJefferson was deeply in debtand had encumbered his slaves by notes
and
mortgages; he chose
not to free them until he finally was debt-free,
which he never was.

The Jefferson-Hemings storyDenied by his children on practical and moral grounds
Jefferson descendants claim that Jefferson’s nephews – Peter and Samuel Carr – were the fathers of the light-skinned Monticello slaves some thought to be Jefferson’s children.

The Jefferson–Hemings Story
was sustained throughout the 19th century by:
abolitionists British critics of US democracy

THE DNA TESTS Conducted by Dr. Eugene Foster and a
team of geneticists in 1998
No direct male descendants of Thomas Jefferson have survived

The DNA Study
Tested Y- chromosomal DNA samples from male-line descendants of Field Jefferson (Thomas Jefferson’s
uncle), John Carr (paternal grandfather of
Samuel and Peter Carr) Eston Hemings (Sally’s second son) Thomas C. Woodson (reputed to be
Sally’s first son)

The DNA Study: (1) Found NO LINK between the
descendants of Field Jefferson and Thomas C. Woodson (reputed to be Sally’s first son, but no records of his birth have been found to substantiate this)

(3) Found that an individual
carrying the male Jefferson Y- chromosome fathered Eston Hemings (born 1808), the last known child of Sally
Hemings.

Does this mean that Thomas Jefferson was definitely the father of Eston Hemings?
No, it means that he COULD BE the father of Eston Hemings.

in January 2000 concluding that there is a strong likelihood that Thomas Jefferson was the father of at least one and perhaps all the children of Sally Hemings.

Many elements of the Jefferson- Hemings story are widely accepted : Sally Hemings (1773-1835) was a slave at
Monticello, She lived in Paris
with Jefferson and two of his daughters from 1787-1789
Sally had 6 children

There are only a few..
Scattered references to Sally in Thomas Jefferson’s records
There is nothing to distinguish her from any other members of her family or any other slaves

Jefferson did not free Sally Hemings. She was permitted to leave Monticello by Maria Jefferson Randolph not long after Jefferson’s death in 1826 and went to live with her sons Madison and Eston in Charlottesville.
Eston Hemings Changed his name to Eston Hemings Jefferson in 1852
Madison Hemings stated in 1873 that he and his siblings were Thomas Jefferson’s children.

The Thomas Jefferson Foundation Stands by its original findings - that
the weight of evidence suggests that Jefferson probably was the father of Eston Hemings and perhaps the father of all of Sally Heming’s children – but is ready to review new evidence at any time and to reassess its understanding of this matter in the light of new information.
