Genetics — I

Genetics has now assumed a central role in biology, as an understanding of gene structure and expression is important in the study of cell biology, biochemistry, microbiology and biotechnology. The historical development of genetics is conventionally divided into four phases. The first is the classical phase of Mendelian or transmission genetics which deals with the transmission of genes from generation to generation as deduced by the observation f different traits or phenotypes, and genetic recombination. The second phase, cytogenetics, deals with the correlation of genetic and cytological (especially chromosomal) features of particular genetic systems. The third phase, biochemical genetics, deals with the chemical nature and action of heredity determinants. The fourth phase, molecular genetics, is concerned with the interpretation of genetic mechanisms at the molecular level in terms of the principles of chemistry and physics. Running parallel with these phase were studies on population genetics and quantitative genetics which deal with variation of genes within populations. Modern genetics is a combination of two or more of the above areas. Book Content of Genetics Volume I Unit 1 1. Introduction 2. Chromosome Structure Unit 2 3.

The chapters in the two volumes are grouped into units. In volume I, unit 1 deals with chromosome structure, unit 2 with the interaction of genes, unit 3 with extrachromosomal inheritance and linkage and crossing over, unit 4 with the genetic of sex, unit 5 with nucleic acids and unit 6 with mutations. In volume II, unit 7 covers genetic recombination, unt 8 protein synthesis, unit 9 gene regulation, unit 10 genetic engineering and unit 11 special topics such as somatic cell genetics, genetics of cancer, developmental genetics and chromosome mapping. The objective of the volumes is to give an overview of genetics, laying emphasis on the experimental basis of key discoveries. The very rapid pace of discovery in molecular genetics during the last couple of decades has been reflected in the more extensive treatment given to chapters on RNA, replication, gene structure, transposition and gene regulation, genetic engineering; genetics of cancer and developmental genetics. With the shifting of emphasis from prokaryote to eukaryote genetics, a separate as well as comparative treatment of two divisions is included in several chapters. The two volumes of 'Genetics' are directed towards all different courses in biological sciences : botany, zoology, microbiology, biochemistry, biophysics and biotechnology. With this objective, examples have been given from all these disciplines. Inclusion of examples from human genetics, including human genetic disease genes and molecular pathology, will also make the volumes useful for medical students. Contents - Unit 7 19.

Biotechnology, an enabling technology, is the growing and most rapidly changing subject which has created a number of new opportunities for the upliftment of human society. It has a broad applications in many diverse aspects of basic research, industry, and commerce. It is a broad field that employs an industrial technology based on the biological synthesis of important chemical compounds, especially proteins (insulin), genetic engineering of plants and animals, and other, related technologies. It also manipulates the genetic information of an organism to allow the characteristics of that organism. The basic process consists of inserting foreign DNA carrying instructions for a valuable enzyme, hormone, or other protein into the DNA of some other organism so that the host organism makes the desired products at the same time as it makes its own proteins. With increasing knowledge of the control of gene activity, as well as new methods to insert genes into eukaryotic cells, it is possible to genetically transform the complex organisms. Genetic information has been especially successful in agriculture, and in beginning at human gene therapy has been made. Some observers feel that biotechnology promises a revolution beyond the scale of that generated by the computer. Certainly, the potential seems unlimited. Contents : 1. Introduction 2.
