The genetic defect-Adenosine Deaminase (ADA) deficiency may be cured permanently by:
| 1. | periodic infusion of genetically engineered lymphocytes having functional ADA cDNA |
| 2. | administering adenosine deaminase activators |
| 3. | introducing bone marrow cells producing ADA into cells at early embryonic stages |
| 4. | invitro cell culture therapy |
The site of production of ADA in the body is:
1. erythrocytes
2. lymphocytes
3. blood plasma
4. osteocytes
The first clinical gene therapy was done for the treatment of
| 1. | AIDS |
| 2. | Cancer |
| 3. | Cystic fibrosis |
| 4. | SCID (Severe Combined Immuno Deficiency resulting from the deficiency of ADA |
ADA is an enzyme which is deficient in a genetic disorder SCID. What is the full form of ADA?
1. Adenosine deoxyaminase
2. Adenosine deaminase
3. Aspartate deaminase
4. Arginine deaminase
| 1. | Genetically engineered lymphocytes are not immortal cells. |
| 2. | Retroviral vector is introduced into these lymphocytes. |
| 3. | Gene isolated from marrow cells producing ADA is introduced into cells at embryonic stages |
| 4. | Lymphocytes from patient's blood are grown in culture, outside the body. |
When gene targeting involving gene amplification is attempted in an individual's tissue to treat disease, it is known as:
| 1. | Molecular diagnosis | 2. | Safety testing |
| 3. | Biopiracy | 4. | Gene therapy |
The Adenosine deaminase deficiency results into:
| 1. | Digestive disorder | 2. | Addison's disease |
| 3. | Dysfunction of Immune system | 4. | Parkinson's disease |
