Most commonly, both donor DNA and vector DNA are digested with the use of a restriction enzyme that produces sticky ends and then mixed in a test tube to allow the sticky ends of vector and donor DNA to bind to each other and form recombinant molecules.]]> 2019-04-09 16:19:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jonathan_brooks2/040919/wish/350014249 Explain jonathan_brooks2 https://padlet.com/jonathan_brooks2/040919/wish/350014483 Why some plasmids contain a gene for resistance to an antibiotic?

Scientists can force bacteria to keep them. Virtually all plasmids that are used to deliver DNA contain genes for antibiotic resistance. Once bacteria have been treated with a plasmid, scientists grow them in the presence of antibiotic. Only those cells that contain the plasmid will survive, grow and reproduce.]]> 2019-04-09 16:19:38 UTC https://padlet.com/jonathan_brooks2/040919/wish/350014483 Describe jonathan_brooks2 https://padlet.com/jonathan_brooks2/040919/wish/350014602 How genetic engineering can improve human health?

These altered organisms could be used in many ways to benefit humans.Or the organisms can be used to produce molecules of benefit to humans. Medical Benefits from Genetic Engineering. One of the first cases of human benefit fromgenetic engineering was the production of human insulin in bacterial cells.]]> 2019-04-09 16:19:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jonathan_brooks2/040919/wish/350014602 Contrast jonathan_brooks2 https://padlet.com/jonathan_brooks2/040919/wish/350014975 One major difference between selective breeding and genetic engineering?

Selective breeding is the traditional method for improving crops and livestock, such as increasing disease resistance or milk yield. Genetic engineering is a faster way, which transplants genes for a desired characteristic into an organism.]]> 2019-04-09 16:20:20 UTC https://padlet.com/jonathan_brooks2/040919/wish/350014975
