RUA MELC: Describe the process of genetic engineering.

Context Appreciate how the genetic engineering improve our daily lives.

Overview: Genetic engineering is the direct manipulation of an organism’s genes using biotechnology. It
covers different kinds of technologies used to alter the genomes that includes the insertion of
genes from other individual either the same or from different species that aims to produce or
improve products.

SYNTHESIS:

In this lesson the students have learned the following;

1. Genetic engineering is the process of changing the DNA in living organisms to create something new. 2. Artificial selection is
 practiced to indirectly manipulate genes focusing on the physical traits among organisms. This includes selective breeding,
hybridization, and inbreeding.
3. Genetic engineering is referred to various techniques used for the modification or manipulation of organisms through the
processes of heredity and reproduction. This includes cloning, gene splicing, gel electrophoresis and DNA recombinant
technology.
4. Recombinant DNA technology use to remove and insert genetic sequences from and into other sequences of another
organism.
5. The tools used in Recombinant DNA technology are restriction enzymes, vectors, and host organisms. 6. The techniques
employed in genetic engineering have led to the production of medically important products, including human insulin,
human growth hormone, and hepatitis B vaccine, as well as to the development of genetically modified organisms such as
disease-resistant plants.
