DNA REPLICATION
DNA REPLICATION is the process by which a double-
stranded DNA molecule is copied to produce two identical
DNA molecules. Replication is an essential process because,
whenever a cell divides, the two new daughter cells must
contain the same genetic information, or DNA, as the parent
cell.
DNA REPLICATION
STAGES
1. Replication fork formation HELICASE,
TOPOISOMERASE
2. Primer synthesis PRIMASE
3. Elongation (leading and lagging strand synthesis; primer
removal) DNA POLYMERASE, EXONUCLEASE
4. Ligation DNA LIGASE
5. Termination

C. Cloning
Cellular Cloning
Molecular Cloning
Reproductive Cloning
CLASSICAL BREEDING
breeders make two different breeds of same specie
mate to have a chance of having an offspring with
their desired trait.
The organism that undergone this process is called
cisgenic organism
GENETIC ENGINEERING
Changing the DNA in living
organisms to create something new by
means of recombinant DNA
technology and gene splicing
The organism that undergone this
process is called transgenic organism

Recombinant DNA
5 processes involved in Genetic Engineering
– Bacterial cell reproduces by means of Binary
Fission so as with the recombinant DNA inside making multiple
copies of the desired gene. When the protein is produced in large
amounts it is isolated and purified.
GENE THERAPY
An application of gene editing technology, in its simplest
form, it involves the introduction of a good gene at a
random location in the genome to aid the cure of a disease
that is caused by a mutated gene. The good gene is usually
introduced into diseased cells as part of a vector transmitted
by a virus that can infect the host cell and deliver the foreign
DNA.
CLONING
A method of creating an exact copy of apart of
genome or the whole organism
Cellular cloning
natural occurring, performed by unicellular
organism
Molecular Cloning
reproducing a desired regions or fragments
of the genome
Reproductive cloning
artificial or induced in the laboratory.
Usually involved multicellular organisms.
