Presentation Transcript

  1. Genetic Engineering/Recombinant DNA

  2. What is it? • Involves the transfer of genetic material from one organism to another. • Results in the formation of Recombinant DNA. • Human genes that control the synthesis of insulin and growth hormone have been inserted into bacteria. • Bacterial cells are then able to synthesize (make) certain substance needed by humans!

  3. Recombinant DNA

  4. Steps: • Cut out donor DNA with restriction enzyme • Cut open plasmid with restriction enzyme • Insert donor DNA into open plasmid • Add ligase to bond donor DNA and plasmid • Obtain synthesized protein https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpmNfv1jKuA
