Document Summary

Biotechnology - technology applied to biological systems or living organisms to make or modify products or processes for a specific purpose: genetic engineering manipulation of genetic material. Bacterial restriction enzymes or restriction endonucleases (re: re recognize short amount of dna sequence (4-8nt long) called restriction sites, restriction sites are often palindromes - same sequence 5" to 3" on both strands. Incomplete digestion - conditions are such that if a restriction enzyme site is present in the dsdna, the enzyme may cut at all the dsdna sites. Isolate gdna and re cuts it into fragments. The same re cuts a bacterial plasmid. Mix the cut gdna with the cut plasmid (they have the same sticky ends) This creates recombinant dna, which is inserted into a bacterial cell. The bacteria grow and divide (replicates and amplifies the gdna) Selection - insertion of genes to identify which bacteria have a modified plasmid. Give plasmids ampicillin resistance gene, so it can live in ampicillin.
