Genetic Engineering: Altering the genes in a living organism to produce a GMO

Process Of Genetic Engineering

Step 1: Isolating the gene

Step 2: Inserting the gene into a vector

Step 3: Inserting the vector into a host

Step 4: Multiplication of host cells by cloning

Step 5: Extraction of desired gene product

                                                         Basic steps in genetic engineering

                                                                          Isolate the gene

                                                              Insert it in a host using a vector

                                                  Produce as many copies of the host as possible

                                                       Separate and purify the product of the gene
