What else can I help you with?
Inserting working copies of a gene directly into the cells of a person with a genetic disorder is called what?
That process is called gene therapy. It involves inserting functional copies of a gene into the cells of a person with a genetic disorder to correct the genetic mutation causing the disorder.
How would RNA polymerase be affected if the repressor protein were not bound to the proper site on a gene?
If the repressor protein is not bound to the proper site on a gene, it would not block the RNA polymerase from transcribing the gene. This would lead to the expression of the gene, as the RNA polymerase can then proceed with transcription.
Does RNA leave the nucleus during the process of gene expression?
Yes, RNA leaves the nucleus during the process of gene expression.
The process of making an RNA version of a gene is?
The process of making an RNA version of a gene is called transcription. During transcription, the DNA sequence of a gene is used as a template to synthesize a complementary RNA molecule. This RNA molecule can then be used to produce proteins through the process of translation.
What is the purpose of using reverse transcripts?
Reverse transcripts are used to synthesize complementary DNA (cDNA) from RNA templates. This process is essential in studying gene expression and molecular biology techniques like PCR, as cDNA can be more stable and easier to work with compared to RNA. Reverse transcription is also key in the development of vaccines and gene therapy.
How do you do gene therapy?
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).
Difference between gene therapy and protein therapy?
at the gene level gene therapy is done and at the the protein level protein therapy is done
Biological social ethical economic or environmental implications of gene therapy?
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?
Inserting working copies of a gene directly into the cells of a person with a genetic disorder is called what?
That process is called gene therapy. It involves inserting functional copies of a gene into the cells of a person with a genetic disorder to correct the genetic mutation causing the disorder.
How could gene therapy be used to treat cancer?
With the help of Gene therapy we can replace or supress the cancer gene
What do Gene therapy researchers use to alter defective hereditary material?
Cells
How would RNA polymerase be affected if the repressor protein were not bound to the proper site on a gene?
If the repressor protein is not bound to the proper site on a gene, it would not block the RNA polymerase from transcribing the gene. This would lead to the expression of the gene, as the RNA polymerase can then proceed with transcription.
When was gene therapy on allowed?
in 1989 us approve gene therapy exprement on human
RNA polymerase binds to the what gene?
RNA polymerase binds to the promoter region of a gene in order to initiate transcription.
What RNA molecules is involved in regulation of gene expression?
Mi RNA
How does gene therapy effect children?
Gene therapy effects children by helping to cure disease and to lengthen lives. Gene therapy can also be used to eliminate diseases that are inherited.
Does RNA leave the nucleus during the process of gene expression?
Yes, RNA leaves the nucleus during the process of gene expression.
