Genetic Engineering 4.4.7 – State that when genes are transferred between species, the amino acid sequence of polypeptdies translated from them is unchanged because the genetic code is universal. Genetic engineering – • DNA technology has resulted in biotechnology, • DNA technology is now applied in areas ranging from agriculture to criminal law 4.4.7 – State that when genes are transferred between species, the amino acid sequence of polypeptdies translated from them is unchanged because the genetic code is universal.
