Recombinant DNA Technology

• Allows DNA fragments to be inserted into a nucleic acid vector that can replicate autonomously within microorganisms.

Usage of Recombinant DNA technology:

• Carrier detection, prenatal diagnosis of genetic diseases, gene therapy, and production of a specific protein, eg., insulin.

• Chromosomes are cut with restriction endonucleases to produce restriction fragments.

• Restriction endonucleases (eg., EcoRI, HaeIII) cut dsDNA at palindromes.
