Manipulation of Genetic Material topics include: Engineered genes and their uses, DNA and RNA libraries construction.   Genetic engineering is a process that involves manipulating an organism's DNA to alter its characteristics. This process can also be used to create new organisms.  Here are some techniques used to manipulate genetic material: Genetic engineering: Involves isolating DNA from another organism and combining it with the DNA of that individual. This process can also involve gene splicing, which introduces new genetic material into an organism's DNA. Polymerase chain reaction... Show more
