The College of Medicine of the University of the USA - Texas offers a double degree program on medicine and molecular biology. Once you complete the requirements of the said program, you will graduate as a Medical Doctor and a Doctor Philosophy in molecular medicine (MD- PhD). Once of the requirements of the said program is to publish a dissertion on molecular medicine. Suppose you are on your final year under the said program, you will discuss one biomelecular disorder. You will then propose possible ways on addressing the said disorder.

A couple comes into the family counseling center and wants information on genetic counseling. They are thinking of starting a family but the wife has a family history of Tay Sachs disease. Kieran is a genetic counselor who will explain the services available at the center. Kieran’s discussion will include genetic mutation, tests that may be done during pregnancy, and advances being made in genetic therapy. What information can Kieran give the couple regarding the services of the genetic counseling center?

Can you please check my answer and see if it is correct. Question: In addition to master mix, what else must be added to each PCR tube? Why? Answer: In addition to master mix, the primers must be added to the PCR tubes. Each tube is also reserved for one individual’s specific section of DNA. So not only do primers needed to be added that are made specifically for the person’s DNA, but the DNA itself from the suspect needs to be added to the PCR tubes (DNA template strand). We also must have a control which contains sterile water, and one PCR tube reserved for DNA from the crime scene.

The Meeting Sarah stared blankly at the blue paisley wallpaper. Her husband Mike sat by her side, bending and unbending a small paper clip. “Sarah and Michael, it’s good to meet you,” welcomed the genetic counselor, as she entered the room. “I apologize for being late, but I was just meeting with another couple. Let’s see, you’d like to have a child, but you’re concerned because of your family history of cystic fibrosis.” “Yes,” Sarah replied softly. “Mike and I met at a CF support group meeting a few years ago. He had a younger brother who died of cystic fibrosis, and I had a younger sister. We saw the painful lives they had—difficulty breathing, the constant respiratory infections. Although the treatments for CF are better now, we just don’t know if we can…” she trailed off. “I can certainly understand your concern,” the genetic counselor responded sympathetically. “That’s where I hope to help, by providing as much information and advice as I can. I’m glad that you came to see me…

will be focusing on genetics as a whole, but also differentiating some specifics for bacterial genetics. The area where I want you to focus for this discussion is on a gene in a microorganism that provides a characteristic you find interesting. However, I want it to be a gene that is beneficial for the microbial cell, but allows for a negative impact related to the human. For example, some strains of Staphylococcus aureus have a gene, mecA, that makes them resistant to the antibiotic methicillin. They are commonly called methicillin-resistant S. aureus or MRSA. The gene is beneficial to the bacteria because it allows for their survival even in the presence of this antibiotic but is negative for humans because it limits what antibiotics can be used for treatment. There are a large range of options here including microbe structures as well as the production of various substances so don’t limit your search.
