The discovery of DNA is attributed to the research of three scientists in 1951; Francis Crick‚ Maurice Wilkins‚ and James Dewey Watson. They were all later accredited with the Nobel Prize in physiology and medicine in 1962. Thanks to their discovery‚ science has been able to research and learn from DNA blueprints and use recombinant DNA technology to discover answers‚ vaccines and build immunity for many viruses. In recent years science has been using this new technology to genetically modify animals

DNA Cloning PCB3063L Section DNA cloning refers to the process of making multiple copies of a DNA fragment. For the past weeks we have conducted a set of experiments that allow us to clone a specific gene in drosophila. First we started by the process of DNA extraction‚ which allowed us to isolate the genomic DNA from D. Melanogaster. This process requires the use of lysis in other to extract the DNA and RNA. After extracting the DNA‚ we it is important to use
