Microorganisms in Biotechnology Recombinant DNA Technology • The procedure of inserting DNA from another organism into bacteria Recombinant DNA Technology • In the medical field, cultured cells are being used to manufacture products such as: • • • • • • • Manufacture insulin for diabetics Human growth hormone Treating Hemophilia Vaccines for Hepatitis B, Diphtheria, and Bacterial Meningitis Treating anemia Cancer treatments For stimulating bone marrow after a bone marrow transplant Viral Vectors and Gene Therapy • Viral vectors are viruses to carry altered DNA into cells and are created by removing genes in a virus and replacing them with the gene to be transferred • The vector is then mixed with growing cells and enter the cell, depositing the new gene in the chromosome of that cell • The gene is then passed on to daughter cells as the cell divides
