what to learn today…• overview of metabolism:

aerobic and anaerobic respiration

• Fermentation in Plants

• Fermentation in Animals

• Fermentation in Humans

• traditional biotechnology: fermentation

• virtual labblog.leonardo.com

cellular respiration: a catabolic reaction

• process of making ATP by breaking down organic compounds

• exergonic

• oxygen (O2) requiring

• uses energy extracted from macromolecules (glucose) to produce energy (ATP) and water (H2O)

6O2 + C6H12O6 6CO2 + 6H2O oxygen glucose carbon dioxide water

enzymes

ADP + Pi

ENERGY transfer between enzymes,

other molecules

ATP

stages of aerobic respiration

• glycolysis: cytosol

• krebs cycle: mitochondrial matrix

• ETC: inner mitochondrial membrane

slow twitch versus fast twitch muscles

Page 13: Traditional versus Modern Biotechnology (Exam 2 coverage)

slow twitch and aerobic respiration

• example: dark leg meat of chicken

• Specialised for slow, sustained contractions over a long period for endurance

• contain lots of myoglobin which acts as a store of oxygen

• Respire aerobically

Page 14: Traditional versus Modern Biotechnology (Exam 2 coverage)

slow twitch works best in:

or if you wanna try duathlon

when you try running the bdm ultramarathon (160km)

Page 15: Traditional versus Modern Biotechnology (Exam 2 coverage)

lactic acid in meat?

• fast twitch

• example: pectoral flight muscles (chicken breast)

• for producing rapid, intense contractions of short duration for rapid movement

• do not have myoglobin so Respire anaerobically

• can accumulate lactic acid and leads to fatigue

thoughtchalk.com

Page 16: Traditional versus Modern Biotechnology (Exam 2 coverage)

fast twitch works best in:Provide the muscle power for rapid, fast movement e.g. a cheetah's burst of speed to catch a gazelle, or the gazelles burst of speed to escape the cheetah

• cheese are ripened curds

• milk is treated with lactic acid bacteria and rennin to coagulate proteins

• curds + whey = milk

• different microbes in the early and late stages of processing of cheese = different cheese characteristics

how to make yoghurtMaking Yogurt in 4 Simple Steps

1. Start with Cow, Sheep, or Goat milk.

Casein before heat pre-treatment:

Casein after heat pre-treatment: Casein after acid:

2. Heat milk to 80 °C. Two purposes: •  destroy existing bacteria •  �condition� the proteins = begins the denaturing process (a whey protein molecule binds to a casein molecule which disrupts the casein bundles allowing them to make short branched micelle chains)

3. Cool milk to 40 °C and innoculate with bacteria 4. Incubate at 30 °C to 45 °C

www.bnc.asn.au

Page 38: Traditional versus Modern Biotechnology (Exam 2 coverage)

bacteria in yoghurtMilk Yogurt

Bacteria produce acid Casein protein micelles (bundles) 10-7 meters in diameter

Fat globule

Acid causes Casein bundles to fall apart into separate casein molecules.

These rebind to each other in a network that traps water.

=> makes a gel

PLANT BREEDING TIMELINE9000 BC First evidence of plant domestication in the hills above the

Tigris river

1694 Camerarius first to demonstrate sex in (monoecious) plants and suggested crossing as a method to obtain new plant types

1714 Mather observed natural crossing in maize

1761-1766 Kohlreuter demonstrated that hybrid offspring received traits from both parents and were intermediate in most traits, first scientific hybrid in tobacco

1866 Mendel: Experiments in plant hybridization

1900 Mendel�s laws of heredity rediscovered

1944 Avery, MacLeod, McCarty discovered DNA is hereditary material

1953 Watson, Crick, Wilkins proposed a model for DNA structure

1970 Borlaug received Nobel Prize for the Green Revolution

Berg, Cohen, and Boyer introduced the recombinant DNA technology

1994 �FlavrSavr� tomato developed as first GMO

1995 Bt-corn developed UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA, 2008

FROM WILD TO DOMESTICATION

Page 49: Traditional versus Modern Biotechnology (Exam 2 coverage)

DOMESTICATION VS !PLANT BREEDING

UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA, 2008

• Domestication!

• people try to control the reproductive rates of animals and plants!

• NOTE: without knowledge on the transmission of traits from parents to their offspring!

• Plant Breeding!

• genetic analysis is used for the development of plant lines better suited for human purposes

CLASSICAL VS MODERN BIOTECHNOLOGY

UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA, 2008

• CLASSICAL: !

• Plant Breeding and Selection Methods!

• GOAL: to meet the food, feed, fuel, and fiber needs of the world!

• MODERN!

• Genetic Engineering!

• GOAL: to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of plant breeding!

Page 53: Traditional versus Modern Biotechnology (Exam 2 coverage)

ANIMAL BREEDING

HARRY, 2008

• Breeding animals to achieve certain characteristics in the offspring!

• Natural method of improving plants and animals!

• Scientists control the natural breeding process!

• Examples: INBREEDING or CROSS BREEDING!

Page 54: Traditional versus Modern Biotechnology (Exam 2 coverage)

CLASSICAL VS MODERN BIOTECHNOLOGY

HARRY, 2008

• Selection (Classical Breeding)!

• Choosing a few parents with the desired traits with the intent of increasing the amount of desired qualities in the offspring!

• Genetic Manipulation (Modern Breeding)!

• Artificial means of producing desirable traits!

• Genes can be moved from one species to another!

• Gene splicing is the moving of hereditary characteristics from one organism to another often unrelated organism

Page 55: Traditional versus Modern Biotechnology (Exam 2 coverage)

INBREEDING

HARRY, 2008

• Mating 2 closely-related animals !

• parents to offsprings and sibling (25% inbred)!

• uncle x niece (12.5% inbred)!

• cousin x cousin (3.125% inbred)!

• Examples: Close Breeding and Pure Breeding

Page 56: Traditional versus Modern Biotechnology (Exam 2 coverage)

THE INBREDS

HARRY, 2008

• CLOSE BREEDING:!

• Mating animals that share common ancestors!

• PURE BREEDING:!

• Mating animals that are not related but of the same breed!

VACCINES• Vaccination: deliberate stimulation of one’s immunity!

• Work by mimicking what happens during natural infection without causing illness!

• Use altered versions of viruses or bacteria to trigger an immune response!

• Are the most effective means of controlling infectious diseases!

• Not only protect those who get them, but they also help keep diseases at bay in the community (herd immunity)

WHOLE-KILLED VS LIVE-ATTENUATED

vaccineresistancemovement.org

• Whole-killed!

• Killed by heat, chemical or UV irradiation!

• more stable and safer than live vaccines!

• can’t mutate back to their disease-causing state!

• take several additional doses, or booster shots, to maintain a person’s immunity!

• Live-Attenuated!

• Made less pathogenic by passage in animals or thermal mutation!

• Contain a version of the living microbe that has been weakened in the lab so it can’t cause disease!

• elicit strong cellular and antibody responses and often confer lifelong immunity with only one or two doses

Page 71: Traditional versus Modern Biotechnology (Exam 2 coverage)

TOXOID AND SUB-UNIT VACCINES

vaccineresistancemovement.org

• TOXOID!

• Used when a bacterial toxin is the main cause of illness!

• inactivate toxins by treating them with formalin (detoxified” toxins = toxoids)!

• Immune system produces antibodies that lock onto and block the toxin!

• SUB-UNIT!

• Instead of the entire microbe, subunit vaccines include only the antigens that best stimulate the immune system (EPITOPES)

OVERVIEW OF CONCEPTS

Page 74: Traditional versus Modern Biotechnology (Exam 2 coverage)

MODERN BIOTECHNOLOGY CONCEPTS

• Involves gene manipulation and gene introduction!

• Genetically-Modified Organisms (GMO)!

• organisms with artificially-altered DNA!

• APPLICATIONS!

• Foreign gene is inserted to enable GMO to express the trait coded by the gene) = TRANSGENICS!

• An existing gene is altered to make it express at a higher level or in a different way = FOR GENE THERAPY!

• Gene is deleted or deactivated: to prevent the expression of a trait (e.g. delayed ripening)
