Gene TherapyGenetic disorders are caused by an abnormality in person's DNA.
gene therapy is when a faulty gene is repaired or replaced
The main goal of the Genetherapy is to correct the defective genes. There are 4 types of gene therapy .they are1. Somatic Gene therapy and another is 2.Germ line gene therapy 3.Enhancement genetic engineering4. Eugenic genetic engineering.
Transcription into RNA does not occur for that gene.
In cystic fibrosis there is an inherited gene that you have that is causing it, so if gene therapy is used, you can replace the gene with the effected one
In gene therapy, a retrovirus is engineered to contain a particular RNA sequence that is to be inserted into the target host's genome lysogenically. That retrovirus also contains reverse transcriptase. When the retrovirus is introduced to the host, it spreads throughout the host's system, infecting cells harmlessly, and introducing the new RNA sequence and reverse transcriptase. This converts the RNA to DNA, and the new DNA (new gene) is integrated into the host's DNA (genome).
Gene TherapyGenetic disorders are caused by an abnormality in person's DNA.

at the gene level gene therapy is done and at the the protein level protein therapy is done
How can "good" and "bad" uses of gene therapy be distinguished?Who decides which traits are normal and which constitute a disability or disorder?Will the high costs of gene therapy make it available only to the wealthy?Could the widespread use of gene therapy make society less accepting of people who are different?Should people be allowed to use gene therapy to enhance basic human traits such as height, intelligence, or athletic ability?
Alternating RNA splicing refers to a process in which different exons are included or excluded in the final mRNA transcript, leading to the production of multiple protein isoforms from a single gene. This process enables cells to generate diverse protein products from a limited number of genes, contributing to cellular complexity and functional diversity. Dysregulation of alternative splicing has been associated with various diseases, including cancer.
Gene therapy involves inserting a healthy copy of a gene into cells that have a defective copy. This can potentially correct the genetic mutation causing the disease and restore normal cell function. The goal is to treat or prevent genetic disorders by replacing or supplementing missing or defective genes.
With the help of Gene therapy we can replace or supress the cancer gene
Mi RNA
Some tools used in gene therapy include viral vectors (such as adenoviruses or lentiviruses) to deliver therapeutic genes into cells, CRISPR/Cas9 technology for gene editing, and gene delivery systems like lipid nanoparticles or electroporation to physically transport genes into cells. These tools help researchers and clinicians introduce, modify, or correct genes within an individual's cells to treat genetic disorders or diseases.
in 1989 us approve gene therapy exprement on human
