Which vector would be the best choice for cystic fibrosis gene therapy and why?

Shkiper50 [21]

The vector that would be the best choice for cystic fibrosis gene therapy is adeno-associated virus for it has valuable reasons. First, it is huge enough to carry the gene, second, it will infect the right type of tissue, third, it will not cause an immune response and lastly, it infects the particular cells that divide irregularly. Therefore, this vector will definitely treat cystic fibrosis for it can target affected cells, which is a great help in the normal functioning of an organ.

2. Dominant trait: cleft chin (C) Mother’s gametes: Cc

andre [41]

.2. Offspring Genotypes will be Cc or cc.

Offspring phenotypes : Cleft chin or no cleft chin.

% chance child will have cleft chin: 50%

3. % chance child will have arched feet: 25%

4. % chance child will have blonde hair: 50%

5. % chance child will have normal vision: 25%

Explanation:

CASE 1 :

Dominant trait: cleft chin (C)

Recessive trait: lacks cleft chin (c)

Father’s gametes: cc

Mother’s gametes: Cc

There are two possible combination of Gametes ,

C fom mother and c from father= Cc

c from mother and c from father = cc

Gametes of Cc Parents= $\frac{1}{2}C + \frac{1}{2} c$ ........(i)

Gametes of cc parents = $\frac{1}{2}c + \frac{1}{2}c$ .........(ii)

Combining (i) and (ii) we get,

$\frac{1}{2} Cc + \frac{1}{2} cc$

There fore offspring Genotypes will be Cc or cc

Offspring phenotypes :

Genotype Cc then phenotype= Cleft chin

Genotype cc then phenotype = Lacks cleft chin.

percentage chance child will have cleft chin = $\frac{0.5}{1}$ ×100

Therefore the chance is 50%.

CASE 2 :

Dominant trait: flat feet (A)

Recessive trait: arched feet (a)

Mother’s gametes: Heterozygous (Aa)

Father’s gametes: Heterozygous (Aa)

There are four possible combination of genotypes are =AA , Aa, Aa and aa

i.e. A from mother, A from father= AA

A from mother, a from father =Aa

a from mother, A from Father = Aa

a from mother, a from father = aa

Gametes of Aa parent = $\frac{1}{2} A + \frac{1}{2} a$

Gametes of other Aa parent = $\frac{1}{2} A + \frac{1}{2} a$

..................................................................................

$\frac{1}{4} AA + \frac{1}{4} Aa$

+ $\frac{1}{4} Aa$ + $\frac{1}{4} aa$

..........................................................................................

$\frac{1}{4}AA + \frac{1}{2}Aa +\frac{1}{4} aa$

Offspring Genotypes will be: AA or Aa or aa

Offsprings phenotype will be:

Genotype AA then phenotype will be Flat feet

Genotype Aa then phenotype will be flat feet

Genotype aa then Phenotype will be arched feet.

Percentage chance child will have arched feet = $\frac{0.25}{1}$ × 100 = 25%

CASE 3:

Dominant trait: Brown hair (B)

Recessive trait: Blonde hair (b)

Mother’s gametes: Homozygous recessive (bb)

Father’s gametes: Heterozygous (Bb)

This case is very similar to the case 1 as one parent is homozygous recessive and other parent is heterozygous.

Resulting in half Bb and halve bb combination.

Genotypes will be Bb or bb

Phenotypes will be :

Genotype Bb then phenotype Brown hair

Phenotype bb then Phenotype bb.

% chance child will have blonde hair: 50%

CASE 4:

Dominant trait: farsightedness (F)

Recessive trait: normal vision (f)

Mother’s gametes: Heterozygous (Ff)

Father’s gametes: Heterozygous (Ff)

This Case is similar to case 2

it will result in one-fourth FF , half Ff and one-fouth ff combination.

Therefore Genotypes will be: FF, Ff and ff

Phenotypes:

Genotype FF then phenotype farsightedness

Genotype Ff then phenotype farsightedness

Genotype ff then phenotype normal vision.

% chance child will have normal vision: 25%
