This teaching module is focused on epigenetic regulation of gene activity by methylation and demethylation. Scientists figured out that modifications of DNA e.g. methylation of CpG-islands could mute genes, demethylation activates genes. If tumor suppressor genes are muted cancer could occur. First drugs to cure cancer on epigenetic level to treat leukaemia are on the market. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"383\" src=\"http:\/\/modernebiotechnologie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-1024x383.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1693\" srcset=\"http:\/\/modernebiotechnologie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-1024x383.png 1024w, http:\/\/modernebiotechnologie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-300x112.png 300w, http:\/\/modernebiotechnologie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-768x287.png 768w, http:\/\/modernebiotechnologie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image.png 1386w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In an international team of student mentors from Pforzheim and Vienna together with their teachers we prepared in advance presentations for background information and presented it to the audit during the meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"771\" src=\"http:\/\/modernebiotechnologie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-1-1024x771.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1694\" srcset=\"http:\/\/modernebiotechnologie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-1-1024x771.png 1024w, http:\/\/modernebiotechnologie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-1-300x226.png 300w, http:\/\/modernebiotechnologie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-1-768x578.png 768w, http:\/\/modernebiotechnologie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-1.png 1384w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In science lessons hands on teaching is an imperative. As a conclusion we developed for the teaching module an experiment on epigenetic gene regulation by methylation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Step of experiment: Unmethylated DNA of a phage is methylated by CpG methylase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Step: Unmethylated DNA of the phage as a control and methylated DNA out of the 1. step are treated with restriction enzyme <em>Cla<\/em>I. This enzyme is sensitive to CpG methylation which means methylated DNA couldn&#8217;t be cleaved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Step: Separation of restriction fragments by gel-electrophoresis<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/modernebiotechnologie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1695\" width=\"791\" height=\"770\" srcset=\"http:\/\/modernebiotechnologie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-2.png 341w, http:\/\/modernebiotechnologie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/image-2-300x292.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 791px) 100vw, 791px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As results of the meeting we prepared a teacher and student protocol in the working language of English we want to evaluate in a future lab workshop which will takes place if SARS-Cov-2 allows us to work in a lab again.

They introduced us their hometown, their high school and the founder of modern genetics, Gregor Mendel, who lived and explored his famous rules in the monastery of Brno.
