Gene cloning 🧬
The process:
1. Extract plasmid (circular bacterial DNA)
2. Cut it with restriction enzymes
3. Insert the gene you want to study
4. Transform bacteria with the modified plasmid
5. Bacteria multiply, copying your gene
This technique revolutionized biology — it's how we:
• Study gene function
• Produce medicines (like insulin)
• Create GMO crops
• Develop gene therapies
Simple concept, massive impact.
