One method of introducing recombinant DNA into eukaryotic cells is electroporation, applying a brief electrical pulse to create temporary holes in plasma membranes

One method of introducing recombinant DNA into eukaryotic cells is electroporation, applying a brief electrical pulse to create temporary holes in plasma membranes

Alternatively, scientists can inject DNA into cells using microscopically thin needles

Once inside the cell, the DNA is incorporated into the cell’s DNA by natural genetic recombination

Amplifying DNA in Vitro: The Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)

Amplifying DNA in Vitro: The Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)

The polymerase chain reaction, PCR, can produce many copies of a specific target segment of DNA

A three-step cycle—heating, cooling, and replication—brings about a chain reaction that produces an exponentially growing population of identical DNA molecules

Concept 20.2: DNA technology allows us to study the sequence, expression, and function of a gene

Concept 20.2: DNA technology allows us to study the sequence, expression, and function of a gene

DNA cloning allows researchers to

Compare genes and alleles between individuals

Locate gene expression in a body

Determine the role of a gene in an organism

Several techniques are used to analyze the DNA of genes
