Genetically engineered vaccines

Current Allergy and Asthma Reports, 2005
The 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 and Water

Science, 2001
D uring the next 25 years, world population is expected to increase by about 2.5 billion people, with most of this projected population growth expected to occur in developing countries. The food requirements in the developing world are expected to double by 2025.

Genetic Engineering in Floriculture

Plant Cell, Tissue and Organ Culture, 2005
The 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.

Genetic Engineering

2014
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, 1983
Bacillus 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.

Genetic Engineering

2011
Through the advent of recombinant DNA technology, genetic engineering has emerged as a crucial step in the development of industrial bioprocesses. Accordingly, genetic engineering techniques such as molecular cloning and recombinant DNA technology, molecular manipulations, and cellular manipulations constitute the fundamental aspects of this article ...

Genetic engineering in plants

Human Reproduction Update, 1995
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.

Genetic Engineering of Livestock

Science, 1989
Genetic engineering of livestock is expected to have a major effect on the agricultural industry. However, accurate assessment of the consequences of transgene expression is impossible without multigenerational studies. A systematic study of the beneficial and adverse consequences of long-term elevations in the plasma levels of bovine growth hormone ...

An Introduction to Genetic Engineering

2002
Des Nicholl presents here a new, fully revised, and expanded edition of his popular undergraduate-level textbook. Many of the features of the original edition have been retained; the book still offers a concise technical introduction to the subject of genetic engineering.

Genetically engineered probiotics

Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology, 2003
Probiotic micro-organisms have been used for many years. Originating as food supplements, they are now most often administered orally and offer an attractive alternative for treating of intestinal disorders. A better understanding of the mechanisms by which these micro-organisms act has now opened up possibilities for designing new probiotic strains ...
