However, they plod along as they clone plasmids—the loops of DNA that biologists use to manipulate and study organisms—because propagating them relies, in part, on the pace at which cells grow and divide. Most medicines, including insulin and semaglutide (the weight loss drug), are made using DNA cloning. However, E.

Some algorithms simply look for important similarities between phage and bacterial DNA sequences, a signal of the extensive gene-swapping that goes on when a particular virus and bacteria have shared history. Left) A molecular structure of bacteriophage T4, which infects E. The tech for this process already exists.

When choosing my bachelor’s degree, the choice was between pursuing a career in biology or in computer science. Biology won that battle, and I pursued a bachelor’s and master’s degree in biochemistry and molecular biology.

Molecular biology, as the field came to be called 3 , pushed biology from an object of study, driven forward by gentleman scientists and precocious country clergymen, into a tool with which to solve urgent problems. Recombinant DNA technologies were invented in the 1970s. Steelman: Biotechnology is not a panacea.
