Answer 1

Answer:

Gene therapy:-

• Treatment of genetic disorder by manipulating genes is called gene therapy.
• It is a technique of genetic engineering to replace a faulty gene by a normal healthy and functional gene.

The gene therapy mainly two type:

i) Germ line gene therapy : Germ cells are modified by the introduction of functional gene.

ii) Somatic gene therapy : The gene is introduced in somatic cells..

Answer 2

Answer:-

Gene Therapy:-

Gene therapy is a form of therapy that involves inserting one or more corrective genes that have been designed in the laboratory, into the genetic material of a patient's cells to cure a genetic disease.

The gene therapy mainly divided into two types,

They are:

1. Somatic gene therapy
2. Germline therapy

Now, we can know about the above gene therapy's

1. Somatic gene therapy:

• With this form of therapy, only somatic cells (body cells) are targeted and not the germline cells, otherwise known of as the gametes or sex cells.
• If the modification of DNA is confined to body cells only, then the altered genome only effects the individual treated and not any offspring produced when the gametes join to form a zygote.

2.Germline therapy:

• This involves incorporation of a tailored gene into the gametes, permanently altering the genes inherited by future generations.

• This type of therapy is prohibited in many countries due to ethical and technical concerns..
