DNA from different sources combined together

Cuts DNA at specific base sequences

Joins DNA fragments together permanently

Inserting healthy gene into cells to replace defective gene

Organism with genetic material from a different species

Reduces pesticide use, targets only specific pests

Study gene function by observing effects of inactivated gene

Electrical pulses create pores in membranes allowing DNA entry

Lab molecules cloned from single antibody-producing cell

Using animal organs for transplantation into humans
