Genetics in the News Recombinant DNA Technology …artificial manipulation of DNA. Recombinant DNA Technology classic – isolate DNA, – cut DNA into workable sized fragments, – amplify the fragments for storage and subsequent analysis, – identify and isolate specific sequences, – characterize by size genomic location and sequence. Cutting the DNA • ~3,100,000,000 base pairs per human haploid genome, – average chromosome length is ~13 million base pairs, • DNA is cut with bacteria-derived enzymes, • The act of cutting is termed “digestion”. Restriction Enzymes …proteins that recognize specific, short nucleotide sequences and cut DNA at those sites, …bacteria contain over 400 such enzymes and recognize and cut over 100 DNA sequences.

Kary B. Mullis Nobel Laureate, 1993 Chemistry "THE SUN HAD been hot that day in Mendocino County. A dry wind had come out of the east, and nobody knew how hot it had been until, around sunset, the wind stopped. I drove up from Berkeley through Cloverdale headed to Anderson Valley. The California buckeyes poked heavy blossoms out into Highway 128. The pink and white stalks hanging down into my headlights looked cold, but they were loaded with warmed oils that dominated the dimension of smell. It seemed to be the night of the buckeyes, but something else was stirring.""My little silver Honda's front tires pulled us through the mountains. My hands felt the road and the turns. My mind drifted back to the lab. DNA chains coiled and floated. Lurid blue and pink images of electric molecules injected themselves somewhere between the mountain road and my eyes."
