  What Is Biotechnology?

  Using scientific methods with organisms to produce new products or new forms of organisms Any technique that uses living organisms or substances from those organisms to make or modify a product, to improve plants or animals, or to develop microorganisms for specific uses

  Beer is an ancient foodstuff Ancient beer was not just drink, but food Thick drink with high caloric value as well as alcohol

• 
  Слайд 4
  

  Yeast cells Both beer and bread were developed around the same time in the middle east Early bread was flat, but when wild yeast contaminated the dough, a fluffier, sweeter bread was created Beer arose out of the liquid soaked bread

  Cheese & yogurt also came about due to microbial contamination

  Classical Biotechnology Refinement of fermentation techniques during 18th and 19th C. During 20th C. fermentation expanded to the production of: Glycerol Acetone Butanol Lactic acid Citric acid

  Herbal plants have been used since ancient times Even today, 25% of our common medicines contain at least some compounds obtained from plants Why do plants create these compounds? Protection from herbivory and predation Allelopathy - plants secrete toxins from their roots that prevent the germination of other plants in their root zone Biopharmaceuticals

  Alkaloids: Over 5,000 alkaloids have been identified in numerous plant families, most in the angiosperms Contain nitrogen Alkaline Bitter Physiological effect on animals, often on nervous system Names of most alkaloids end in "...ine" http://www.life.umd.edu/classroom/bsci124/lec29.html http://www.uky.edu/~dhild/biochem/26/quinoline.gif

  Common Medicinal Alkaloids & their Sources: Morphine Poppies Caffeine Coffee/Tea Nicotine Tabacco Emetine Ipecac Atropine Belladonna Quinine Cinchona Tree

  During 19th C. quinine was critical to British colonial expansion Extracted from the bark of the cinchona plant Not enough could be extracted, another source was needed http://www2.unil.ch/lpc/images/docu04/0_doc/quinine.gif

  Penicillin

  Слайд 13
  

  Penicillium mold In 1928 Alexander Fleming noticed something odd about a petri dish contaminated with mold The mold seemed to kill the bacteria Fleming was unable to isolate the bactericidal action

  Слайд 14
  

  In 1940 Norman Heatley finally showed that penicillin could stop infection Mice were infected with streptococcus bacteria Half were given penicillin. Those receiving penicillin survived, those that didn’t died.                                                                                                                                                                                                                           No penicillin penicillin 24 hrs. later No penicillin penicillin

  1st human patient was a policeman with staphylococcal & streptococcal infections which had already taken part of his face and an eye He began to recover, but later died 2nd patient was a 15 yr. old boy septic from a hip operation Two days after receiving penicillin his temperature dropped back to normal after being at 100° for 2 wks

• 
  Слайд 16
  

  By D-Day the U.S. was making millions of doses. Unfortunately, neither Heatley nor his boss patented the discovery. This was done by U.S. firms. Thus for 25 yrs. England had to pay royalties on its own discovery.

  Genetics - historical perspective

  Practical genetics 7,000 yeas ago corn breeding - Central America rice breeding - China horse pedigree - Babylon Genetics - science - Mendel

  A domesticated animal is one which has been bred in captivity Thru artifical selection they are modified from their ancestors for use by humans Before After http://www.doganswers.com/method.htm http://www.billybear4kids.com/animal/whose-toes/toes-61a-wolf.html

  Wolf/Dog domestication lead to: Alteration in body size Reduction in skull & tooth size Shortening of the jaw bones Affection for humans Variation in coat color Tendency towards barking By 6000BC dog skeletons are found along side human remains

  Most domesticated species arose in SW Asia or China Of the ~150 species of terrestrial non-carnivores >100 lbs, only 14 have been domesticated 13 are of Eurasian origin, one from mesoamerica None derive from Australia or sub-Saharan Africa

• 
  Слайд 23
  

  Desirable Characteristics for Domestication of an Animal Species Value to humans as food, draft, fiber, or hunting Large herbivores offer energy use advantages Rapidly reach their desired size Must be able to breed in captivity Good disposition & social structure

  Слайд 24
  

  The switch from hunter-gatherer to farmer took place between 10 000 & 5 000 years ago Both Eurasia & the Americas developed large numbers of domesticated crops The development of agriculture required changes in wild plants such that they were amendable to cultivation Many of these changes were either brought about by humans or were capitalized by them Plant Domestication

  Example Wheat is a grass spread seeds called grains Mutants developed that did not lose seed This made it easier for humans to collect

• 
  Слайд 26
  

  Hybridization played a role in the evolution of modern grains

  Changes in corn size from 5000 BCE to 1500CE The evolution of modern corn took several thousand years Selection for larger ears by mesoamericans created modern corn by the time Europeans had reached the Americas

• 
  Слайд 28
  

  Mutation responsible for this change has been identified It is not a change in a gene itself, rather it is a decrease in the expression of the gene tb1

  Later Concepts

  1900 - Not until 34 years after its publication did Mendel’s work receive additional attention, with publications in 1900 by three Botanists: Hugo de Vries, Carl Correns, and Erich von Tsernak; 1902 - Walter Sutton first integrated the concepts of chromosomes with Mendel’s laws, in studies of grasshopper reproduction and cell division and concluded that Mendel’s heritable factors must be on the chromosomes. 1907 – T.H. Morgan began his work with fruit flies, ultimately mapping gene locations.

  First Structure

  By 1910 actual components known (nucleotides) Phoebus Levene proposed a tetranucleotide structure for DNA Tetranucleotide repeat of ATCG Own data showed nucleotides not in 1:1:1:1 ratio Differences “probably experimental error…”

• 
  Слайд 45

  So…

  If DNA was a single covalently bonded tetranucleotide structure then it couldn’t easily encode information Proteins, on the other hand, had 20 different amino acids and could have lots of variation Most geneticists focused on “transmission genetics” and passively accepted proteins as being the likely genetic material

  Avery, McCarty and MacLeod

  After 10 yrs of effort published work using Griffith’s approach to assay for the genetic material Used Cell-free extract of S cells From 75 liters of cell culture obtained 10-25 mg of “active factor Proteases, RNases, DNases, etc. Transforming factor is DNA

  Erwin Chargaff

  1949-1953 Digested many DNAs and subjected products to chromatographic separation Results A = T, C = G A + G = C + T (purine = pyrimidine) A + T does not equal C + G Members of a species similar but different species vary in AT/CG ratio

  Impact

  Article in Nature “It has not escaped our notice that the specific pairing we have postulated immediately suggests a possible copy mechanism for the genetic material” Second paper 2 months later describes semiconservative replication and that mutations must change bases in DNA (information encoded in the bases and their order) DNA became the genetic material…
