Recombinant DNA technology involves isolating DNA from different species, cutting it with restriction enzymes, and splicing the pieces together to form recombinant molecules. These molecules are multiplied in bacteria or yeast cells. Key steps include extracting DNA, cutting it with restriction enzymes, inserting a gene of interest into a plasmid, transforming bacteria with the plasmid, and using antibiotics to select bacteria containing the recombinant DNA. This allows mass production of human genes for applications like gene therapy and production of therapeutic proteins.

Plasmid is a double stranded, circular extra chromosomal DNA of bacterium. It is used in recombinant DNA experiments to clone genes from other organisms and make large quantities of their DNA. Plasmid can be transferred between same species or between different species. Size of plasmids range from 1-1000 kilo base pairs. Plasmids are part of mobilomes (total of all mobile genetic elements in a genome) like transposons or prophages and are associated with conjugation. Even the largest plasmids are considerably smaller than the chromosomal DNA of the bacterium, which can contain several million base pairs.

genetic engineering: Genetic engineering, also called genetic modification, is the direct manipulation of an organism's genome using biotechnology. It is a set of technologies used to change the genetic makeup of cells, including the transfer of genes within and across species boundaries to produce improved or novel organisms. Many organism are manipulated with the help genetic engineering useful for mankind.
DNA cloning is the process of making multiple, identical copies of a particular piece of DNA. In a typical DNA cloning procedure, the gene or other DNA fragment of interest (perhaps a gene for a medically important human protein) is first inserted into a circular piece of DNA called a plasmid.- [https://www.khanacademy.org/science/...dna.../dna-cloning.../a/overview-dna-cloning]

Describe the application of DNA profiling in paternity tests and forensic investigations
Analyze DNA profiles to draw conclusions about paternity tests and forensic investigations.
Now a day's these technique is tremendously use for in lab by using foreign Dna to to producing insulin in bacteria , plant with high yielding capacity by using Gene from another species
A recombinant DNA molecule is produced by joining together two or more DNA segments usually originating from two different organisms.
More Specifically, a recombinant DNA molecule is a vector into which desired DNA fragment has been inserted to enable its cloning in an appropriate host.
Recombinant DNA molecules are produced with one of the following objectives:
1. To obtain large number of copies of specific DNA fragments.
2. Large scale production of the protein encoded by the gene.
3. Integration of the desired DNA fragment into target organism where it expresses itself.
Drought tolerant-genetically modified plants:
Present abiotic stress is a major challenge in our quest for sustainable food production as these may reduce the potential yields by 70% in crop plants
Of all abiotic stress, drought is regarded as the most damaging
Transgenic plants carrying genes for abiotic stress tolerance are being developed for water stress management
Conventional breeding approaches, involving inter specific and inter generic hybridizations and mutagenesis have been limited success.
Major problems have been the complexity of drought tolerance & low genetic yield components under drought conditions.
Unlike conventional plant breeding there is no need of repeated back crossing
Gene pyramiding or gene stacking through co-transformation of different genes with similar effects can be achieved.

2. Recombinant DNA Technology
Recombinant DNA technology procedures
by which DNA from different species can
be isolated, cut and spliced together --
new "recombinant " molecules are then
multiplied in quantity in populations of
rapidly dividing cells (e.g. bacteria, yeast).
3. Recombinant DNA Technology
The term gene cloning, recombinant DNA
technology and genetic engineering may
seems similar, however they are different
techniques in Biotechnology and they are
interrelated
4. Recombinant DNA Technology
Human gene therapy, genetically-
engineered crop plants and
transgenic mice have become possible
because of the powerful techniques
developed to manipulate nucleic acids and
proteins.
5. Recombinant DNA Technology
In the early 1970s it became possible to
isolate a specific piece of DNA out of the
millions of base pairs in a typical genome.
6. Recombinant DNA Technology
Currently it is relatively easy to cut out a
specific piece of DNA, produce a large
number of copies , determine its
nucleotide sequence, slightly alter it and
then as a final step transfer it back into cell
in.
7. Recombinant DNA Technology
Recombinant DNA technology is based on a
number of important things:
Bacteria contain extrachromosomal
molecules of DNA called plasmids
which are circular.
8. Recombinant DNA Technology
Bacteria also produce enzymes called
restriction endonucleases that cut
DNA molecules at specific places into
many smaller fragments called
restriction fragments.
9. Recombinant DNA Technology
Restriction Enzymes and plasmid
There are many different kinds of
restriction endonucleases
Each nuclei cuts DNA at a specific site
defined by a sequence of bases in the
DNA called a recognition site
10. Recombinant DNA Technology
Restriction Enzymes and plasmid
A restriction enzyme cuts only double-
helical segments that contain a particular
sequence, and it makes its incisions only
within that sequence--known as a
"recognition sequence".
11. Recombinant DNA Technology
Restriction Enzymes and plasmid
Sticky end and blunt end are the two
possible configurations resulting from the
breaking of double-stranded DNA
12. Recombinant DNA Technology
Restriction Enzymes and plasmid
If two complementary strands of DNA are of
equal length, then they will terminate in a
blunt end, as in the following example:
5'-CpTpGpApTpCpTpGpApCpTpGpApTpGpCpGpTpApTpGpCpTpApGpT-3'
3'-GpApCpTpApGpApCpTpGpApCpTpApCpGpCpApTpApCpGpApTpCpA-5'
13. Recombinant DNA Technology
Restriction Enzymes and plasmid
However, if one strand extends beyond the
complementary region, then the DNA is said
to possess an overhang:
5'-ApTpCpTpGpApCpT-3'
3'-TpApGpApCpTpGpApCpTpApCpG-5'
14. Recombinant DNA Technology
Restriction Enzymes and plasmid
If another DNA fragment exists with a
complementary overhang, then these two
overhangs will tend to associate with each
other and each strand is said to possess a
sticky end:
16. Recombinant DNA Technology
Restriction Enzymes and plasmid
Restriction Enzymes are primarily found in
bacteria and are given abbreviations
based on genus and species of the
bacteria.
One of the first restriction enzymes to be
isolated was from EcoRI
EcoRI is so named because it was
isolated from Escherichia coli strain called
RY13.
18. Recombinant DNA Technology
Creating recombinant DNA :
The first Recombinant DNA molecules
were made by Paul Berg at Stanford
University in 1972.
In 1973 Herbert Boyer and Stanley Cohen
created the first recombinant DNA
organisms.
20. Recombinant DNA Technology
Reading materials :Summary of
Recombinant DNA technology
process:
Recombinant DNA technology requires
DNA extraction, purification, and
fragmentation.
Fragmentation of DNA is done by specific
'restriction' enzymes and is followed by
sorting and isolation of fragments
containing a particular gene.
21. Recombinant DNA Technology
Summary of Recombinant DNA
technology process:
This portion of the DNA is then coupled to
a carrier molecule.
The hybrid DNA is introduced into a
chosen cell for reproduction and
synthesis.
22. Recombinant DNA Technology
Transformation and Antibiotic
Selection
Transformation is the genetic alteration of
a cell resulting from the introduction,
uptake and expression of foreign DNA.
23. Recombinant DNA Technology
Transformation and Antibiotic
Selection
There are more aggressive techniques for
inserting foreign DNA into eukaryotic cells.
For example, through electroporation .
Electroporation involves applying a
brief (milliseconds) pulse high voltage
electricity to create tiny holes in the
bacterial cell wall that allows DNA to enter.
24. Recombinant DNA Technology
Plasmids and Antibiotic resistance
Plasmids were discovered in the late
sixties, and it was quickly realized that
they could be used to amplify a gene of
interest.
A plasmid containing resistance to an
antibiotic (usually ampicillin) or
Tetracycline, is used as a vector.
25. Recombinant DNA Technology
The gene of interest (resistant to
Ampicillin) is inserted into the vector
plasmid and this newly constructed
plasmid is then put into E. coli that is
sensitive to ampicillin.( Text bk:Pg 58)
The bacteria are then spread over a plate
that contains ampicillin.
26. Recombinant DNA Technology
Plasmids and Antibiotic resistance
The ampicillin provides a selective
pressure because only bacteria that have
acquired the plasmid can grow on the
plate.
Those bacteria which do not acquire the
plasmid with the inserted gene of interest
will die.
27. Recombinant DNA Technology
Plasmids and Antibiotic resistance
As long as the bacteria grow in ampicillin,
it will need the plasmid to survive and it
will continually replicate it, along with the
gene of interest that has been inserted to
the plasmid .
30. Recombinant DNA Technology
Human Gene cloning
Once inside a bacterium, the plasmid
containing the human cDNA can multiply
to yield several dozen replicas.

35. Recombinant DNA Technology
This segment is "glued" into place using
an enzyme called DNA ligase.
The result is an edited, or recombinant,
DNA molecule.
36. Recombinant DNA Technology
When this recombinant plasmid DNA is
inserted into E. coli, the cell will be able to
process the instructions to assemble the
amino acids for insulin production.
37. Recombinant DNA Technology
More importantly, the new instructions are
passed along to the next generation of E.
coli cells in the process known as gene
cloning.
