A technology that uses enzymes to cut and paste together DNA sequences of interest. The recombined DNA sequences can be placed into vectors that carry the DNA into a host cell. In this host cell, the ...

Biology is no longer being hampered by the cell environment thanks to cell-free technology that makes it easier to clone DNA. Located in Tokyo, Japan, OriCiro Genomics is a pioneer in cell-free ...

Nearly three decades since the remarkable cloning of Dolly the sheep, it has all gone quiet on the human cloning front.

Bacterial cells often possess molecules of closed, circular DNA, otherwise known as ‘plasmids’. They can also be present at much lower frequencies in certain eukaryotic cell types, such as yeast. They ...

Scientists successfully cloned a black-footed ferret using DNA of a frozen relative that died in 1988 for the first time in US history. Elizabeth Ann was born on 10 December and is a genetic copy of a ...
