Question

Recominant DNA technology and its application​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Recombinant DNA (rDNA) molecules are DNA molecules formed by laboratory methods of genetic recombination (such as molecular cloning) to bring together genetic material from multiple sources, creating sequences that would not otherwise be found in the genome.

Recombinant DNA is the general name for a piece of DNA that has been created by the combination of at least two strands. Recombinant DNA is possible because DNA molecules from all organisms share the same chemical structure, and differ only in the nucleotide sequence within that identical overall structure. Recombinant DNA molecules are sometimes called chimeric DNA, because they can be made of material from two different species, like the mythical chimera. R-DNA technology uses palindromic sequences and leads to the production of sticky and blunt ends.

Answer 2

Answer: DNA containing target genes(gene of interest) is transported using a vector (vehicle) to a plasmid DNA (extra chromosomal DNA in bacteria). When bacteria divides, our target DNA also divides. The resultant DNA formed using bacterial DNA and target DNA is called recombinant DNA. This target DNA contains our gene of interest.

Recombinant DNA technology is used to make insulin, vaccines,etc. It is also used to study the effect of certain newly synthesized drugs on target genes.
