'The use of recombinant DNA technology can only benefit humans' Today, genetic engineering plays a very important role, not only in scientific research, but also in the diagnosis and treatment of disease. The objectives of recombinant DNA technology include: identifying genes, isolating genes, modifying genes, and re-expressing genes in other hosts or organisms. These steps enable scientists to identify new genes and the proteins they encode, to correct endogenous genetic defects, and to manufacture large quantities of specific gene products such as hormones, vaccines, and other biological agents of medical interest, (especially medicine). As all living creatures contain the same DNA but in different sequences, there is a huge possibility that using technology like the recombinant DNA, this can benefit them. Not only humans but also plants, sea creatures and insects. With any technical advances new public policy needs arise. Recombinant DNA is an example of a technology that has created a...
