Strategies for Enhancement in Food Production
normal
Genetic engineering is possible, because
A
The phenomenon of transduction in bacteria is well understood
B
We can see $DNA$ by electron microscope
C
We can cut $DNA$ at specific sites by endonucleases like $DNAase-I$
D
Restriction endonucleases purified from bacteria can be used in vitro.
(AIPMT-1998)
Solution
(d) Genetic engineering is the manipulation of genetic material of an organism using enzyme restriction endonuclease.
Nathans and smith $(1970)$ isolated the first restriction endonuclease. Jackson, symons and paul Berg $(1972)$ successfully generated recombinant $DNA$ molecules in vitro.
