Principles of Genetic Engineering [PDF]
Genetic engineering is the use of molecular biology technology to modify DNA sequence(s) in genomes, using a variety of approaches. For example, homologous recombination can be used to target specific sequences in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cell genomes or other cultured cells, but it is cumbersome, poorly efficient, and relies on drug positive/negative

The arrival of genetic engineering [PDF]
The purpose of this article is to review the different strategies for the delivery of plasmid DNA (pDNA)-based gene therapy. Plasmids are extrachromosomal DNA capable of being transmitted from cell to cell. They are supercoiled, circular covalently closed (ccc) strands of DNA capable of replication independently of host DNA and ranging from 5 to 400 ...

Transcription Factor-Based Genetic Engineering in Microalgae
Sequence-specific DNA-binding transcription factors (TFs) are key components of gene regulatory networks. Advances in high-throughput sequencing have facilitated the rapid acquisition of whole genome assembly and TF repertoires in microalgal species.

Research and adoption of biotechnology strategies could improve California fruit and nut crops
California's fruit and nut tree crops represent one-third of the state's cash farm receipts and 70% of U.S. fruit and nut production. Advances in crop biotechnology and genetic engineering could help protect these valuable crops from pests and diseases ...

Genetic engineering in athletes [PDF]
Athletes who want to maximise their performance are continually tempted to use illegal drugs to gain competitive advantage and to aid recovery from training and injuries. Recent revelations of widespread doping arising from investigations of the distributionof the anabolic steroid tetrahydrogestrinone by the American company BALCO (Bay Area Laboratory ...

ABSTRACT Background Establishing a comprehensive apheresis medicine program in a resource‐constrained setting presents significant structural, financial, and logistical challenges. Despite the growing clinical importance of apheresis services globally, published experience from sub‐Saharan Africa remains sparse.
