Question

How is transgenesis done?

Answer 1

Transgenesis:

1. Transgenesis is a kind of experiment in which a foreign gene is inserted into an organism's genome, passed down through the germ line, and the progeny's phenotype is examined.
2. An exogenous gene of interest can be made to express itself by transgenesis.
3. Liposomes, plasmid vectors, viral vectors, pronuclear injection, protoplast fusion, and ballistic DNA injection can all be used to do this.
4. Transgenic animals are those whose genomes have been altered.
5. In the lab, transgenic organisms are created for scientific investigation.
