Genetic Engineering
Kerby Anderson
Genetic Diseases
The age of genetics has arrived. Society is in the midst of a genetic revolution that some futurists predict will have a greater impact on the culture than the industrial revolution. So, in this essay we are going to look at the area of genetic engineering. The future of genetics, like that of any other technology, offers great promise but also great peril. Nuclear technology has provided nuclear medicine, nuclear energy, and nuclear weapons. Genetic technology offers the promise of a diverse array of good, questionable, and bad technological applications. Christians, therefore, must help shape the ethical foundations of this technology and its future applications. How powerful a technology is genetic engineering? For the first time in human history, it is possible to completely redesign existing organisms, including man, and to direct the genetic and reproductive constitution of every living thing. Scientists are no longer limited to breeding and cross-pollination. Powerful genetic tools allow us to change genetic structure at the microscopic level and bypass the normal processes of reproduction. For the first time in human history, it is also possible to make multiple copies of any existing organism or of certain sections of its genetic structure. This ability to clone existing organisms or their genes gives scientists a powerful tool to reproduce helpful and useful genetic material within a population.

Dr. Ray Bohlin
What forms of genetic engineering can be done in human beings?
Genetic technology harbors the potential to change the human species forever. The soon to be completed Human Genome Project will empower genetic scientists with a human biological instruction book. The genes in all our cells contain the code for proteins that provide the structure and function to all our tissues and organs. Knowing this complete code will open new horizons for treating and perhaps curing diseases that have remained mysteries for millennia. But along with the commendable and compassionate use of genetic technology comes the specter of both shadowy purposes and malevolent aims. For some, the potential for misuse is reason enough for closing the door completelythe benefits just aren't worth the risks. In this article, I'd like to explore the application of genetic technology to human beings and apply biblical wisdom to the eventual ethical quagmires that are not very far away. In this section we'll investigate the various ways humans can be engineered. Since we have introduced foreign genes into the embryos of mice, cows, sheep, and pigs for years, there's no technological reason to suggest that it can't be done in humans too. Currently, there are two ways of pursuing gene transfer. One is simply to attempt to alleviate the symptoms of a genetic disease. This entails gene therapy, attempting to transfer the normal gene into only those tissues most affected by the disease. For instance, bronchial infections are the major cause of early death for patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). The lungs of CF patients produce thick mucus that provides a great growth medium for bacteria and viruses. If the normal gene can be inserted in to the cells of the lungs, perhaps both the quality and quantity of their life can be enhanced. But this is not a complete cure and they will still pass the CF gene on to their children.

    TABLE OF CONTENTS
    The universal principle of molecular recognition. This should be very familiar to you by now, so it may turn up on exams. Every cell contains membrane-bound molecules exposed to the environment which communicate with it. These molecules act as the "eyes, ears and nose" of a cell. That is, they "see", or "smell" what other molecules are out there like a hunting dog winds its prey. They contain, as part of each molecule, specific regions on each molecule called RECEPTORS or BINDING SITES . Molecules in the environment contain specific components called LIGANDS that have the characteristic of binding or attaching (docking with) specifically at unique sites on the cell's receptor molecules. Following this attachment a number of different responses may occur. In some cases a message is passed to the interior of each cell as to the situation it has found, while in others the attached molecule may be transported into the cell. In the former case this information, in turn, triggers the cell to carry out a series of preprogrammed responses based on the data it has received; this is analogous to the Mars rover receiving commands from earth. We will discuss some of these responses throughout the course. Permission to use this cartoon was granted by

    The Role of Microorganisms in Genetic Engineering
    Escherichia coli Most vector molecules were originally derived from one of two sources:
    • Plasmids - small, autonomously replicating circular pieces of bacterial DNA, which often carry antibiotic-resistance genes.
    • Bacteriophages (phages) - viruses which infect bacteria.
    Rapidly, the original vector molecules were greatly modified to improve their usefulness as vectors, e.g:
    • Insertion of selectable marker genes
    • Removal or creation of useful sites for cloning
    • Restriction endonucleases: EcoRI from Escherichia coli
      BamHI from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens These systems operate by enzymes which recognise specific short regions of DNA sequence, which are usually palindromic ('Able was I ere I saw Elba'), e.g: 5' GGATCC 3'
      3' CCTAGG 5'
    • DNA ligase:
    • Other modifying enzymes (phosphatases, kinases, single-strand specific nucleases, etc): allow precise modifications to pieces of DNA to be made in vitro in order to add, remove or alter the structure of DNA.
    • RNA modifying enzymes - e.g. exonucleases, RNA ligase, reverse transcriptase. RNA is much more difficult to work with in vitro because the enzymes available are generally not as sophisticated as the set available which modify DNA.

    Introduction
    Genetic engineering and biotechnology Even a discussion limited to one particular aspect, e.g. the ethical aspects of intellectual property rights in the context of genetic engineering and biotechnology for developing countries , touches on too many highly complex issues to allow a meaningful conclusion in today's lecture. The collective term "developing countries" is itself already too sweeping: It takes in countries so different in economic and social terms and neglects such important specific political and cultural circumstances as to preclude generalizations.
