1. Transgenic Organisms

2. 3.3.2
Summarize how transgenic organisms are
engineered to benefit society.

3. Manipulating DNA
Genetic engineering is the science of
manipulating DNA for the benefit of
society.
Transgenic organisms contain
recombinant DNA which is made by
connecting fragments of DNA from
different sources.

4. Types of Transgenic Organisms
 Scientists can essentially make any living
organisms' offspring a transgenic organism.

5. Common Purposes
Mass producing functional proteins to treat
genetic diseases.
Creating organisms that are able to
survive in different types of habitats.
Creating plants resistant to pests for
increase in yield.
Increasing the development of desired
traits in organisms.

6. Use of DNA Plasmids
Using plasmid DNA from prokaryotes is
common for mass producing human genes
to treat disease such as diabetes.
Bacteria reproduce asexually and fast.

7. Steps in Creating a Recombinant DNA
Plasmid
1. Restriction enzymes cut DNA of both
DNA strands. They are bacterial proteins
that have the ability to cut both strands of
the DNA molecule at a specific nucleotide
sequence.
2. The foreign DNA is connected to the
plasmid DNA by another enzyme called
DNA ligase.

8. Steps in Creating a Recombinant DNA
Plasmid
3. Only bacterial plasmids that incorporate
the foreign DNA survive when placed on a
medium with an antibiotic.

9. Gene Expression
DNA->RNA-> Protein
The transgenic organism is a success if it
creates the proteins from the organism in
which the DNA came from.
