20th century
through recombinant DNA techniques, bacteria have been created that are capable of synthesizing
Application
what are the application capable of synthesizing
Human Insulin
Human Growth Hormone
Hepatitis B
Other medically useful substances
BT corn
Bacillus thuringiensis
can be used to make human proteins with biomedical applications as the insulin
biopharmaceuticals
attempts to provide a normal copy of the gene of the cells of a patients body
Gene Theraphy
build artificial, recombinant versions of genes that help us understand how normal genes in an organism function
