1 2 Now Its Time to Forget About Biology and To Name: ______________________________________________________________________ 1 2 Now its time to forget about biology and to start learning about history. Just Kidding!!!! We’re going to learn more about both biology and history. This web quest/scavenger hunt is designed to help you understand how our knowledge of heredity and DNA has developed over the years. You must complete this assignment by the end of the period. Good Luck!! Go to http://www.dnai.org Click on timeline. Here you will see columns labeled with different decades. In the column is a list of important scientists and their discoveries. Click on a column and it takes you to a more detailed description. There is a picture of each scientist. Roll over the picture to find out who it is. Click on the picture to read the bio. Roll over the cartoon to find out what the experiment was and click that picture to watch an animated description of the experiment(s). Above the scientists is a timeline of other important events occurring in the world. Below are links to other decades. Answer the following Questions If it says “Jeopardy!!”, remember, your answers must be in the form of a question. Pre 1920’s 1. So we’ve been talking a lot about Mendel and his pea plants, yada yada yada. Click on his experiment and list three reasons why pea plants are good to do research on. a. b. c. 2. When was Mendel’s research finally understood? _________ (HINT: read Mendel’s bio or read about the experiments of Correns, Vries, and Tschermak-Seyseneg) BONUS: What did Miescher believe was really the molecule of heredity? (HINT: read his bio) ___________ 3. Mendel discovered the basis of inheritance in that traits are passed on in specific ways. This guy: __________________ discovered the chromosomal theory of inheritance. 4. So, Mendel was way ahead of his time? Circle YES or NO If yes then why. (in case you were wondering, the answer is yes) 5. Who was working on his experiments when the Titanic sank? _______________ Bonus: Who said this: “You’re here, there’s nothing I fear, and I know that my heart will go on.” __________________ 6. When Thomas Morgan was researching fruit flies, he noticed the presence of a white eyed mutant. This led to the discovery of ________ linked traits. Briefly explain what you think is meant by sex-linked traits. Jeopardy!!!! (your answers must be in the form of a question) 7. It took him eight years and more than 10,000 pea plants to discover the laws of inheritance. 8. I first isolated DNA using pus collected from bandages at a local hospital. Since white blood cells are a major component of pus, they were my source of DNA. Yuck! 9. The “fly room” at Columbia University was established through my efforts. Imagine working in a room filled with bottle after bottle of fruit flies! 10. Miescher named it nuclein. 1920’s- 1949 10. Herman Mueller discovered that X-rays do what to DNA? ___________________ (Ever wonder why they make you wear a lead apron at the dentist) 12. What was Barbara McClintock famous for discovering? ___________________ What in the world is that? Explain. BONUS: Briefly explain the one gene one enzyme theory. (Beadle and Tatum) 20. Why was it that Rosalind Franklin died from cancer at such an early age? (hint: think Herman Mueller) Jeopardy!!! 15. Next time you’re munching away at the movies, think of this Nobel-Prize winning scientist who figured out the process of transposition in corn chromosomes. 17. He discovered the harmful effects of x-rays and discouraged excessive use in Medicine. 18. In Linus Pauling’s DNA model, which direction were the bases facing? 19. These are the two most famous dudes on this timeline. 21. She was given the nicknames “Rosie” and “The Dark Lady of DNA” 22. He came up with a triple stranded helical model of DNA. Late 1950’s 24. Read about Francis Crick’s experiments. Tell me what “The Central Dogma” means. (P.S. If you learn only one thing from all of our genetics and DNA talk, then it should be this) BONUS: There are exceptions to this rule, however, they were not discovered until later on. What would one exception be? (hint: 1970’s David Baltimore and Howard Martin Temin) 25. What is the enzyme that synthesizes DNA. _________________ (Hint: Arthur Kornberg) 26. When did Disneyland open? ________ The 1970’s Did you know that up to 6 feet of DNA is packaged to fit into the nucleus of a single cell.? 27. Read the beginning of Roger Kornberg’s experiments.

Oral history is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well- informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************************************ All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Arthur Kornberg, M.D., dated June 18, 1997.

  • New Issues in Genetic Counseling of Hereditary Colon Cancer Patrick M
    New Issues in Genetic Counseling of Hereditary Colon Cancer Patrick M. Lynch Abstract Clinicians face significant challenges in the diagnosis and management of familial colorectal cancer predisposition. Many of the challenges concern the rarity of individual conditions and their unfamiliarity to most clinicians, even those in the subspecialty areas of gastroenterology, colorec- tal surgery, and medical oncology. Because the World Wide Web now offers a wealth of informa- tion, familiarity with available online resources should be a minimal expectation of clinicians. Notably, these same resources are available to the lay public, so a more informed group of patients can be expected and is already being encountered.The web sites noted throughout this article are merely early examples of what should become an opportunity for instant access to the most up-to-date knowledge of rare familial colorectal cancers and their clinical features, molecular diagnostics, and clinical management and prevention. Many professional organizations have pro- duced guidelines (in print and online) for use by practitioners in various specialties.The consisten- cy, growing evidence base, and ready availability of these guidelines to providers and patients alike will likely foster greater recognition of the need to be in compliance with them. Finally, as investigators make progress with the genetics of these rare diseases, one can anticipate a ‘‘coop- erative group’’approach to clinical trials. Identification of inherited susceptibility to colon cancer is now protein expression, which is followed by mutational testing readily possible, with genes identified for familial adenomatous when MSI and/or immunohistochemical screens are informa- polyposis (FAP) and its variants (1–3), hereditary nonpoly- tive.

  • Obituary: Professor Arturo Falaschi the Human Frontier Science
    Obituary: Professor Arturo Falaschi The Human Frontier Science Program Organization is greatly saddened by the sudden death of Prof. Arturo Falaschi on June 1st 2010. Arturo was a member of the HFSP Council of Scientists from 1996-2001, serving as Chair of the Council for two years from 2000-2001. This was a time of great change for HFSP following the appointment of Torsten Wiesel as Secretary General and the introduction of many program initiatives. Arturo led the discussions at the Council of Scientists with great energy and imagination. He contributed substantially to the transformation of HFSP that occurred during this period, being instrumental in the reorganization of the scientific programs by championing the merging of the traditional neuroscience and molecular biology committees. Arturo Falaschi had a distinguished scientific career in the field of DNA replication. After postdoctoral training with Nobel Laureates Har Gobind Khorana in Wisconsin and Arthur Kornberg at Stanford, he returned to Italy to the Institute of Genetics of the CNR (the Italian National Research Council) at the University of Pavia, where he was later appointed as Director of the CNR Institute for Biochemical and Evolutionary Genetics and then Director of the CNR National Project for Genetic Engineering. In 1987 he became Head of the Trieste component of the International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (ICGEB). From 1989-2004 he was Director-General of the ICGEB and remained associated with the Centre as Head of the ICGEB Molecular Biology Laboratory in Pisa. He also served as a member of the Executive Committee of the CNR. Arturo had a strong commitment to the global scientific endeavour.
