· We begin with an explanation of restriction enzymes, the chemistry that makes recombinant DNA possible.
· The gene gun is a crude way of tranferring DNA.
· Bacterial plasmid vectors are more sophisticated.They have resulted in biological products made like the production of human insulin via bacterial culture.
· Gene therapy and cancer.
