How to make gmo corn? a step by step process how you would achieve this. (which vectors, plasmids, DNA, organisms, mode of injecting new DNA).
Hi,
The GMO corn is produced by Monsanto company to develop insect resistance in corn. The idea was to insert the Cry1AB gene from bacteria Bacillus thuringensis into corn, which will make it resistant to insect infestation.
The gene of interest is PCR amplified and purified from the source bacteria. The isolated gene is restriction digested with desired enzymes such as BamH1 or EcoR1. It is now ready to insert into a plasmid. A suitable plant plasmid such as pCAMBIA is used to carry the gene into the corn via agrobacterium. The gene is ligated with the plamsid and multiplied inside another bacteria Agrobacterium. Here the gene is amplified along with the plasmid and multiple copies are made. These are now extracted and coated onto micro tungsten beads. These beads are bombarded under pressure onto the vegetative tissue like leaf of corn. The bombarded tissue is used as Ex plant for tissue culture. A proper callus is allowed to form and slowly new shoots emerges. This is now confirmed for the presence of gene of interest. If it is positive, then we have created a GMO corn.

you have heard about three different vectors to clone DNA fragments (plasmids, BACs, and YACs). Which of these would be most appropriate to clone a DNA fragment with the length of 5,000 bp, and which would be most appropriate for a fragment of 200,000 bp? The genome of fruit flies has a size of about 175 Mbp. Assuming that each base pair has a height of 3 Angstrom (1 Angstrom is 10^-10 m), how long is the genome of a...

Consider Lewin's three-step process. Which of the three steps do you thin would be hardest to do? how might experience help develop a manager's ability to use this change process? ( at least 400 words).
the seven-step selling process which is the sequence of steps salespeople follow each time they make a sale. The process gives you the power to successfully sell almost anything. Think of a personal interaction in which you sold someone on an idea (e.g., a vacation, a choice of movies, or a date). Describe the interaction you had and how the seven steps applied to this particular situation.
you want to make RNA in vitro, how would you do that? meaning what would you add to get RNA in PCR instead of DNA
Name 3 changes you could make to your diet that would help you achieve a healthier eating pattern. (10 pts)
Gick and Holyoak consider which of the following to be the most difficult step to achieve in the process of analogical problem solving? Select one: a. Noticing that there is an analogous relationship between problems because most participants need prompting before they notice a connection b. Mapping corresponding parts between the problems because the elements are difficult to identify c. Applying the mapping to generate a parallel solution because of the difficulty in generalizing from one problem to another d....
This week I would like you to discuss a topic that recalls some of what you learned in Lesson 2 and the topic of Biotechnology. In this Lesson, on Medical Technology, there is a significant connection with Lesson 2 and Viral Vectors, the use of a virus to impact or change the DNA of an organism. I first discovered this process in reading Dan Brown's recent novel, Inferno (2013) New York: Doubleday, which uses viral vectors as an important element...
1. How would you define geneticengineering? 2. How would you make a fly that has the HRP gene in its cells? 3. Watch Video "How to Perform Colony PCR" and then answer the below questions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hoyRrowtd44 How was DNA able to move along the agarose gel and be ordered by size? What would have been needed in the PCR reaction to obtain bands for the gene that was inserted into the vector? 4. Watch video on microinjecting DNA into germline...
Which of the following is the correct order of events in the polymerase chain reaction (PCR)? See Section 20.2 (Page 468) cooling to allow primers to attach; heating to separate double-stranded DNA; elongation of DNA strand as nucleotides are added elongation of the DNA strand as nucleotides are added; cooling to allow primers to attach; heating to separate double-stranded DNA heating to separate double-stranded DNA; cooling to allow primers to attach; elongation of DNA strand as nucleotides are added heating...
