|
A. PCR |
1. Polymerase chain reaction 2. copies genes (amplifies them) 3. identifies mutations, daddys and criminals |
|
|
B. Gene Cloning |
1. enzyme cuts out human gene of interest 2. same enzyme cuts vector's genome 3. human gene spliced into vector 4. ligase anneals/link gene to vector's genome 5. vector made to multiple 6. gene is cloned and.... 7. in many cases pharmaceuticals are made (transcription and translation performed) |
