How gene therapy treatment affect our future?
Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- I need help with the following questions and there are multiple parts and I dont understand! Scientists have recently inserted a gene to create a mouse with an increased capacity for learning and memory- basically increasing the mouse’s IQ. Normal, average human IQ is around 100, above that is considered highly intelligent while an IQ below 70 is considered to indicate mental disability. In the future, if this treatment could be applied to humans, it could increase IQ by 30 points. A couple has a son with Down’s syndrome giving him an IQ of 70. They want to use the therapy to increase his IQ to 100 in order for him to function normally. This is considered to be gene therapy, where technology is used to help a person function better. A second couple has a son with an IQ of 120. They want to use the technology to bring his IQ up to 150. They feel he would have a better chance of getting into a prestigious university. This is called gene enhancement where technology is…Discuss about the use of genetically modified milk from animals for human baby consumption. Are you agree or disagree with this? List down your pointers to this topicDirections Please do some out of class research to help you answer the questions below. Please include a url and page/video title to indicate where you found your information. Prompt Sometimes, changes or “mutations” occur that prevent genes from doing their job properly. Certain mutations in the BRCA genes make cells more likely to divide and change rapidly, which can lead to cancer. If you inherit a mutated version of a BRCA gene, does this mean you are guaranteed to develop cancer? What other changes must occur for cancer to develop? Citation required.
- The following statements are either accurate as written or contain some errors. You need to rewrite each as an accurate statement. Make sure that you do not change the material the sentence is about. Highlight or underline any changes that you make to statements. Thank you! 1. Cancer is caused by a single mutation in either a tumor suppressor gene or an oncogene. The reason that cancer rates increase with age is because our immune system is better at fighting mutations. 2. Pluripotent is the term used for cells that have already differentiated into all cell types within an organism. 3. Phenotypic variance is partitioned into genetic variance and additive variance. This also indicates that the amount of variance in the phenotype of individuals with the same genotype is solely based on heritability values.how do i expand this into 1000 words for a result section of a report The objective is to interpret the results of an RNA-Seq analysis to identify differentially expressed genes in breast cancer using figure 1. The data provided includes gene symbols, chromosome location, start and end points, strand, fold change, log2 fold change, p-value, and false discovery rate (FDR). The RNA-Seq analysis has identified several genes that are differentially expressed in breast cancer. These genes are located on various chromosomes and have varying levels of fold change, indicating the degree to which their expression levels differ between normal and cancerous cells. The gene with the highest fold change is EYA4, located on chromosome 6, with a fold change of 3604.4176. This indicates that the expression of this gene is over 3600 times higher in cancer cells compared to normal cells. The log2 fold change is 11.81555, which is a measure of the magnitude of the difference in gene expression. The…I need help with the following question I dont understand a) and b)!!!!! Dr. Sharon Martin and her company have spent years working to identify how the gene for albinism works. The mutation in this gene causes no pigment to be produced in the hair, skin or eyes. Identifying the gene would open the door to curing the condition. Finally, her team succeeds. But, the years of research have been expensive. One way to make back the money is to patent the gene that the team members have identified. Then, anyone who wanted to develop either treatments or tests would have to pay a fee to use the gene. a) Do you think the government should allow this gene to be patented? Explain. b) If Dr. Martin’s company develops a test for this gene, should they be allowed to patent the test? Explain.
