Genome Engineering; a Group of Technologies Used To Change an Organism's DNA
Genome engineering, also known as genetic editing, gene manipulation, or genetic engineering, is basically a form of genetic engineering where DNA is introduced, inserted, deleted, or altered at the genetic level of an organism. It involves editing and modifying the genetic material of living organisms. There are various methods to insert, delete, and modify genetic material in living organisms. In recent years, several approaches to genome editing have been developed. Genome engineering technologies enable scientists to make changes in DNA, leading to changes in physical traits. These technologies act like scissors, cutting DNA at a specific spot. The process of editing DNA may be done to address specific needs, such as to create an animal/plant hybrid, repair a disease gene, or add on to a chromosome. It may also be used to screen thousands of diseases for genetic disorders. It allows scientists to study how various lifestyle traits and physical attributes are affected by gen...
