FUNTIONAL GENOMICS: GENOMES AT WORK
After the groundbreaking gene-splicing experiment of Paul Berg in 1972, Molecular Biology exploded. Soon everybody was cloning genes, the biological barriers between all kind of biological barriers were broken with transgenic experiments, the amounts of DNA bases sequenced per day went past the 10,000 in less than five years, and the duplication of DNA in the lab was increased to never undreamed of speeds thanks to the technique of PCR. Soon scientists realized that working one gene at a time was an extremely slow work and the idea was came up: “let's sequenced the whole genome.” Thus was born The Human Genome Project (HGP)and a new science Genomics. Here we will talk about genomes at work.,After the groundbreaking gene-splicing experiment of Paul Berg in 1972, Molecular Biology exploded.
