Document Summary
Selectively grow a host to take up this vector. Any host that doesn"t take this vector will be susceptible to this antibiotic. Being able to make copies of specific dna sequence. Bring the temperature down so the primers can hybridize (cbp) Primers needed for pcr, given a target gene sequence. Use a kind of dna polymerase -> taq polymerase. The primers are what make the pcr specific. Characteristics of taq polymerase that make it suitable for pcr. Increase temperatures -> separate the backbones -> add primer -> lower temperature -> synthesize with polymerase -> repeat. Usefulness of transgenic strategies in research as well as commercial protein production. Branches of canadian government responsible for regulating production and sale of genetically modified organisms. Definition of genetically modified organisms (gmo) in canada. One derived from an organism that had some of its heritable traits changed. Examples of gmo organisms approved to be consumed as food in canada.
