Genetic engineering and its applications in biotechnology

At the end of this activity, students should be able to:
– explain the artificial recombination of DNA
– demonstrate the significance of restriction enzymes in manipulating DNA
– explain the term "vector", give examples and describe its properties from the perspective of genetic engineering
– demonstrate the stages of obtaining the product of a given gene in the bacterial cell
– give examples of biologically active proteins obtained by genetic engineering techniques
– explain the basics of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
