Genetic Engineering
Genetic engineering is the process of recombining DNA structures in order to alter and control both the genotype and the phenotype of all living things. The process uses restriction enzymes in order to sever a DNA molecule into smaller sections, which are then reconnected with genes from another organism.
Genetic engineering has a number of positive effects for humanity. First, it can be used to produce a large selection of human proteins including growth hormones, insulin and interferon, through the use of bacteria. It can also help to create healthier, more fruitful plants and much more.
Today, genetic engineering is a powerful, imperative tool in medical research, but it is possible only in microorganisms. Many researchers hope that in the future, genetic engineering may be used on more complex life forms. This would enable humans to control and eliminate genetic disorders and mutations.
