A Genetic Engineering Approach to Genetic Algorithms
Evolutionary Computation, 2001We present an extension to the standard genetic algorithm (GA), which is based on concepts of genetic engineering. The motivation is to discover useful and harmful genetic materials and then execute an evolutionary process in such a way that the population becomes increasingly composed of useful genetic material and increasingly free of the harmful ...

Genetics and genetic engineering ofZymomonas mobilis
World Journal of Microbiology & Biotechnology, 1993Present knowledge on the genetics of the ethanologenic anaerobeZymomonas mobilis includes background information on: size, restriction, and to some extent hybridization, analysis of indigenous plasmids; mutagenesis and isolation of a wide variety of auxotrophic, drug resistant and conditional mutants; construction of shuttle cloning vectors able to ...

Genetic Engineering: Evolution
2010This entry traces the early evolution of genetic engineering from its beginnings, in unrelated fields of basic science, to the present day. The results of this fundamental scientific research have led to the development of a multibillion-dollar biotechnology industry, producing innovative human and animal health care products and improved varieties of ...

Genetically engineered vaccines
Current Allergy and Asthma Reports, 2005The application of recombinant DNA technology to allergen research has provided the sequence information and genetic material to produce new types of allergy vaccines. One general strategy has been to use the knowledge to produce synthetic peptides that represent selected T-cell or B-cell epitopes.

Genetic Engineering in Floriculture
Plant Cell, Tissue and Organ Culture, 2005The global flower industry thrives on novelty. Genetic engineering is providing a valuable means of expanding the floriculture gene pool so promoting the generation of new commercial varieties. Commercialisation of genetically engineered flowers is currently confined to novel coloured carnations.

One of the most powerful laboratory tools used in biotechnology is the engineering of specific genes. This chapter will cover methods of cutting double-stranded DNA, inserting it into plasmids, and sealing the plasmids. The use of plasmids allows for their amplification via prokaryotes such as E. coli.

Genetic engineering of bacilli
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. B, Biological Sciences, 1983Bacillus subtilis has emerged as a major cloning system. In this paper we analyse the vectors, vehicles and strategy for cloning. Solutions to current problems in genetic engineering including the development of standard fermentation strains are proposed.

Until now most research, and its funding, has been focused on animal and human health care as well as simple microbiological model systems such as Escherichia coli and yeast. Molecular plant studies have generally lagged behind, often simply adapting discoveries from the animal field to plants.
