The Case
Your summer job is as intern in a genetics lab at a Mount Blueberry Children’s hospital. A doctor comes to your team and says that he has a family in which he suspects three cousins of all have Niemann-Pick type C disease. The family would like to know:1) the children indeed have Niemann-Pick type C2) what are the risks of future children in the
family developing the disease.

Niemann Pick Type C• Niemann-Pick disease is an
inherited condition in which patients have abnormal lipid metabolism causing harmful amounts of lipids to accumulate in the spleen, liver, lungs, bone marrow, and brain.
• Caused by mutations in genes NPC1, NPC2, SMPD1
• NPC1 mutations account for 95% of type C cases. Video of Lysosomal Storage Diseases

Micropipettes• What is a micropipette for?
– Used for moving volumes of liquid from 0.2-1000μL
– Adjustable/Fixed settings• Why should disposable
micropipette tip be used?– To prevent sample and
micropipette contamination

Part 1 – Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)
• PCR is a technique used to amplify specific regions of DNA
• Start with one molecule of double stranded patient DNA and generate 2 after one cycle
• Exponential increase in DNA

Step 1: Denature the double-stranded DNA into single strands.
Step 2: Anneal the primers to a specific region of DNA.
Step 3: Extend by synthesizing new DNA using the enzyme DNA polymerase which uses the original strand as a template for nucleotide placement.

Polymerase Chain Reaction
• Step 1: Denature DNA– Heat it up!
• Step 2: Primer annealing– Get the first tracks laid
out• Step 3: Extension– DNA polymerase fills in
the gaps

Part 3 – DNA Electrophoresis
• DNA electrophoresis is a technique used to separate DNA by charge and size
• DNA is a charged molecule – what charge?
![Page 23: Diagnosing Niemann Pick disease, Type C](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815e4f550346895dccc6cf/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
DNA Electrophoresis
• DNA is separated on an agarose gel based on size
• TAE buffer is added to cover the gel
• A power supply applies a current across the gel

• Place micropipette tip into TAE buffer directly over the well in the agarose gel
• Slowly pipet sample into the well

DNA Visualization
• DNA cannot be visualized with the visible eye
• GelRed will bind to DNA– GelRed is in the agarose
gel• GelRed is excited by UV
light and will give off visible light
