1
Q
What is the first step of genetic engeerint?
A
Identify the desired gene
2
Q
What is the second step of genetic engineering?
A
Use a restriction enzyme to cut out the desired gene
3
Q
What to do after step 2
A
Use a restriction enzyme to cut open the bacterial plasmid DNA
4
Q
What is the fourth step of genetic engineering?
A
Use a ligase enzyme to insert the desired gene into the plasmid
5
Q
What to do after the desired gene has been placed into the plasmid?
A
Place the plasmid into a bacterium
6
Q
What happens to the plasmid once it’s been placed into a bacterium
A
Bacteria grows and divides producing desired gene
7
Q
