Use the fоllоwing cаse study tо аnswer the following questions. You аre a few years out of college and your friends are getting married and starting to have children. One of your friend's has a 2-year old boy that developed very normally as a child, but around one he began to show decreased muscle tone, and he was unable to sit up or walk, even though he just recently learned how to walk. He was genetically tested and found to have AADC deficiency, which is a disorder that interferes with the way cells in the nervous system communicate, eventually resulting in the inability to breath. There is currently no cure, but your friends are hopeful that gene therapy will be a good option. Is this disorder a good candidate for gene therapy? Question 1: Could this condition be corrected by adding one or a few functional genes? [1] Question 2: Do you know which genes are involved? [2] What is the name of the gene? [3] Question 3: Do you understand the biology of the disease? [4] What is the wild-type function of the gene? [5] How is this disease inherited? [6] Question 4: Can you deliver the gene to the cells of the affected tissue? [7] What is the affected tissue? [8] Question 5: Can a viral vector be used to target the affected tissue? [9] If yes, what viral vector would be the best option for treating this disorder? If no, select viral vectors will not work for this disorder. [10]
