A REVIEW ON RECOMBINANT DNA TECHNOLOGY

Abstract

 Recombinant DNA is artificially created from two or more DNA incorporated into a single molecule. Genetic engineering, recombinant DNA technology, genetic modification/manipulation and gene splicing are terms that are applied to the direct manipulation of an organism‟s gene. Genetics is the science of genes, heredity, and the variation of organisms. In modern research, genetics provides important tools in the investigation of the function of a particular gene. The development of these new technologies have resulted into production of large amount of biochemically defined proteins of medical significance and created an enormous potential for pharmaceutical industries. The biochemically derived therapeutics is large extracellular proteins for use in either chronic replacement therapies or for the treatment of life threatening indications.
