Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

4. Introduction
Recombinant DNA Technology is the joining together of
DNA molecules from two different species.
The Recombinant DNA molecule is inserted into a host
organism to produce new genetic combinations.
Recombinant DNA technology also known as Gene
Cloning/Molecular Cloning, Genetic Engineering, Genetic
modification.
The first recombinant molecule containing DNA from
different organisms was assembled late in 1971.
The technology for propagating and expressing
recombinant genes was invented by Stanley Cohen and
Herbert Boyer in 1973.
5. Basic principles of rDNA
technology
Generation of DNA fragments & selection of the desired
piece of DNA.
Insertion of the selected DNA into a cloning vector to create
rDNA.
Introduction of the recombinant vectors into host cells.
Multiplication & selection of clones containing the
recombinant molecules.
Expression of the gene to produce the desired product.
7. Applications of Recombinant DNA
Technology
rDNA technology has a wide range of application in
industries, medical science, & agriculture as “well as
molecular biology”.
Molecular diagnosis of diseases
Gene therapy
DNA fingerprinting
Production of vaccines
Commercial & pharmaceutical products.
8. Enzymes used for rDNA
Technology
rDNA technology produce rDNA using a set of enzymes
known as recombinant enzymes.
They are :-
1. Nucleases
2. Ligases
3. Polymerases
4. DNA modifying enzymes
9. Restriction Endonucleases
Enzymes
Restriction endonucleases are indispensable for DNA cloning &
sequencing. They serve as the tools for cutting DNA molecules
at predetermined sites, which is the basic requirement for gene
cloning or rDNA technology.
The presence of restriction enzymes was postulated by W.
Arber, during 1960s, while the first true restriction
endonuclease was isolated in 1970 by Smith, Nathans.
Nucleases are enzymes that degrade DNA molecules by
breaking the phosphodiester bonds.
Nucleases are two types:-
Exonuclease : removes the terminal nucleotide of the DNA
molecule
10. Continued
Endonucleases : breaks the internal phosphodiester bond.
Endonucleases are the most widely used ones.
Restriction Endonucleases were first discovered in E.coli.
There are four distinct types of restriction endonucleases:
i. Type I
ii. Type II
iii. Type III
iv. Type IV

12. Nomenclature
The nomenclature of restriction endonucleases follows a
general pattern.
The 1st letter of the name of genus in which a given enzyme
is discovered is written in capital.
This is followed by the first two letters of species name of
the organism.
These three letters are written in italics, as Eco from
Escherichia coli, Hin from Haemophilus influenzae.
EcoRI :- E = genus, co = species, R = strain(Ry13), I= order of
discovery Ist .
13. Recognition Sequence
It is a site where DNA is cut by Restriction endonuclease.
It is 4-8bp in sequence.
It is pallindromic in sequence. Example- ROTATOR
5’GAATTC3’
3’CTTAAG5’
Most Type II restriction endonucleases have recognition sites of 4, 5,
or 6bp, which are GC – rich.
EcoRI recognition site
5’GAA TTC3’
3’CTT AAG5’
14. Mode of action of Restriction
Enzyme
Restriction enzymes cuts DNA molecules in two different
styles.
Sticky or Staggered style
• Most common cutting by Restriction Endonucleases
• Complementary ends present.
• Examples- EcoRI, BamHI
EcoRI - 5’GAATTC3’ 5’GAATTC3’
3’CTTAAG5’ 3’CTTAAG5’
BamHI - 5’GGATCC3’ 5’GGATCC3’
3’CCTAGG5’ 3’CCTAGG5’
15. Continued
Blunt Style
• Less common used in RDT
• No complementary ends present.
• Example HaeIII, AluI
HaeIII- 5’GG CC3’
3’CC GG5’
AluI - 5’AG CT3’
3’TC GA5’
16. DNA Ligase
DNA ligase act as a molecular glues as they help in sealing
gaps in DNA fragments.
In 1969 Har Govind Khorana discovered DNA ligase in T4
bacteriophage.
The enzyme used most often in RDT is T4DNA ligase.
DNA ligase joins two ends of DNA & help in the synthesis of
phosphodiester bond. This phosphodiester bond is formed
between 3’OH group at the end of 1 polynucleotide chain &
5’phosphate group at the end of other polynucleotide chain
of DNA.
This enzyme changes linear DNA into circular DNA & helps
in formation of recombinant molecule.
17. Continued
Restriction digestion of DNA generates two types of DNA
ends- sticky ends or blunt ends.
Blunt ends are simple direct and non-cohesive.
Special types of DNA ligase are used to ligate these types of
DNA ends.
Sticky ends are cohesive & have few basepairs palindromic
sequences on both the strands.
Sticky ends are generated for inserting a gene of interest in
the plasmid.
It works better in comparison with the blunt end ligation.
19. DNA Polymerase
DNA polymerase is a complex enzyme which synthesize
nucleotide complementary to template strand.
It adds nucleotide to free 3’OH end and help in elongation
of strand.
It also helps to fill gap in double stranded DNA.
DNA polymerase was first discovered by Kornburg in 1959 in
E.coli bacteria.
Taq polymerase isolated from Thermus aquaticus is used in PCR.
There are three types of DNA polymerases:-PolymeraseI,
PolymeraseII, DNA polymeraseIII.
20. continued
The DNA polymeraseI enzyme, apart from addition of single
nucleotide to free OH end of DNA chain, also catalyzes 3’ 5’
& 5’ 3’ exonuclease activity.
DNA polymerasesII also catalyzes 3’ 5’ exonucleases
activity.
The polymerization activity of polymeraseII is less than the
polymeraseI & about 50 nucleotides per minute are synthesized.
DNA polymerasesIII requires an auxiliary protein DNA
copolymerase III for its polymerization activity. It can polymerize
15000 nucleotide per minute.
22. DNA modifying enzymes
There are numerous enzymes that modify DNA molecules
by addition or removal of specific chemical groups.
The most important are as:-
Alkaline phosphatase
Polynucleotide kinase
Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferases
23. Alkaline phosphatase
• It is isolated from E.coli or calf intestinal tissue.
• It removes the phosphate group present at 5’terminal of the
DNA molecule.
• This enzyme is used to stop the ligation reaction between
the DNA molecules.

24. Polynucleotide kinase
It isolated from E.coli which has reverse effect of alkaline
phosphates add ℗ terminal in the end.
It uses ATP as phosphate donor in reaction
It promotes ligation reaction
brainkart.com
25. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl
transferases
This enzyme is responsible for Homopolymer tailing.
This enzyme involves the addition of oligo to 5’ends of DNA
& addition of oligo to 3’end of DNA.
The complementary end of DNA can be joined by annealing
process.
The tailing is catalyzed by enzyme (ToT)

26. Conclusion
Recombinant DNA technology is an important development
in science that has made the human life much easier. It has
advanced strategies for cancer treatment, genetic diseases,
diabetes.
This technology also involved in forensic science.
The combination of restriction modification enzymes
representing cutting and joining functions in DNA
manipulation and genetic engeeniring enable the
application of a wide variety of procedures.
