Study Notes
Introduction to Biotechnology
- Biotechnology is the science and methods that use living organisms to produce products.
- It manipulates living organisms for human benefit.
- Biotechnology combines biological processes and technology.
- It is sometimes called "the technology of hope".
- Biotechnology has medical, agricultural, and industrial applications.
Father of Biotechnology
- Károly Ereky (Karl Ereky) is considered a father of biotechnology.
- Ereky worked on biotechnology of meat, fat, and milk production on large farms in Germany in 1919.
Central Dogma of Molecular Biology
- The central dogma describes information flow in biology.
- It involves DNA replication, transcription, and translation, which are vital processes within the cell.
DNA
- Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) carries genetic information.
- DNA has a double helix structure.
- DNA strands are complementary (bases pair up) and antiparallel (run in opposite directions).
- DNA dictates all aspects of an individual's life.
Recombinant DNA Technology
- Recombinant DNA technology allows for gene cloning.
Types of Biotechnology
- Medical Biotechnology: focuses on human health.
- Agricultural Biotechnology: improves crops and farm animals.
- Industrial Biotechnology: involved in manufacturing processes using biology.
- Marine Biotechnology: utilizes marine organisms for various applications.
- Food Biotechnology: focuses on food production and processing using biological processes.
- Environmental Biotechnology: involves using biology to solve environmental problems.
Conventional vs. Modern Biotechnology
