    A particularly important category of genetic linkage has to do with the X and Y sex chromosomes. These not only carry the genes that determine male and female traits but also those for some other characteristics as well. Genes that are carried by either sex chromosome are said to be sex linked. Men normally have an X and a Y combination of sex chromosomes‚ while women have two X’s. Since only men inherit Y chromosomes‚ they are the only ones to inherit Y-linked traits. Men and women can get

    Gene Knockdown Essay

    • 894 Words
    • 4 Pages

    genetic modification of existing genes in mammals by RNA interference is called Gene Knockdown. Gene Knockdown occurs by Messenger RNA (mRNA) being targeted so that it can no longer carry out its normal function. This happens by double stranded RNA (dsRNA) being introduced to the selected cell. The dsRNA then begins producing small interfering RNA (siRNA) which bind to the mRNA product of the target gene‚ and make it inactive. Double stranded RNA makes the targeted gene inactive by binding to an Argonaute

    resistant pathogens through horizontal gene transfer. Located in the bacteria are plasmids. They are independent‚ self-duplicating‚ and allow bacteria to perform new functions/generate new products. Basically plasmids help their hosts to stop the action of antibiotics and become resistant. “Gene transfer must be integral and critical to the overall survival of bacteria‚ providing a way for them to adapt to difficult conditions” (Levy 2002‚ 83). Horizontal gene transfer can occur through conjugation
