All microbes are( take bacteria as an example) are one-celled organisms with no visible organelles. They have their DNA distributed through their cytoplasm, as opposed to other eukarotic cells that have their DNA within a nucleus. Bacteria are easy to reproduce, meaning they are available as an inexhaustible supply. They are also simple in structure, making them an ideal candidate to study and work with. When trying something as intricate as DNA manipulation, it is best to start small. DNA strands can be quite lengthy and complicated, so starting small and working your way up is recommended. The isolation of specific gene sequences should be easier, as is the observation of the result of the genetic insertion. There are three things that can result as the effect of genetic engineering: 1) a beneficial trait, one that helps the organism survive, 2) a negative trait, one that either helps or causes the organism to die, and 3) nothing at all, because a lot of different codons all basically produce the same trait.

Genetic engineering is the act of modifying the genetic makeup of an organism. Modifications can be generated by methods such as gene targeting, nuclear transplantation, transfection of synthetic chromosomes or viral insertion. Selective breeding is not considered a form of genetic engineering.
