Abstract Some bacteria are able to go through transformation making new combinations of genes. Transformation is a way of gene variability in bacteria. This experiment is based on the transformation mechanism of bacteria and gene regulation. The bacteria used for the experiment was Escherichia coli and the genes introduces for the transformation were: gfp and bla by a pGLO™ plasmid. After the insertion of the target genes and growing the bacteria on specialized LB media‚ it could be seen that the

technology is used to alter the genetic material of living cells in order to make them capable of producing new substances or performing new functions. It is the procedure that allows scientists to basically change the very nature of nature. From adding jellyfish genes to mice to make them glow‚ to cloning sheep and creating super vegetables‚ the doors that have been opened and the possibilities that can be explored by this branch of science are endless. There are two main applications for Genetic Engineering

Seventy-thousand years ago‚ our ancestors were insignificant animals. The most important thing to know about prehistoric humans is that they were unimportant. Their impact on the world was not much greater than that of jellyfish or fireflies or woodpeckers. Today‚ in contrast‚ we control this planet. And the question is: How did we come from there to here? How did we turn ourselves from insignificant apes‚ minding their own business in a corner of Africa‚ into the rulers of planet Earth? 0:50 Usually
