BISC 2539 Chapter Notes - Chapter 10.1-10.2: Palindrome, Lac Operon, Bacterial Artificial Chromosome
Document Summary
Dna polymerase could be fashioned into a tool for dna isolation and analysis. Dna technology: describes the collective techniques for obtaining, amplifying, and. Genetic engineering: application of dna technology to specific biological, medical, or. Genomics: ultimate extension of the technology to the global analysis of the nucleic acids. It is now possible to: manipulating specific dna fragments agricultural problems in the nucleus, a cell, an organism, or a group of species. Isolate a specific region in almost any genome. In addition, isolated genes can be altered at will and transferred back into the germ line of an animal or plant. Researchers could utilize the dna replication machinery to replicate dna segments. Sample containing gene of interest: donor dna. Fragments of the donor dna are inserted into a specially designed plasmid/virus that. Can be done in live bacterial cells or in a test tube will carry and amplify the gene of interest and is called a vector.
