The wonders of genetic engineering: From achievements to single-cell protein

Fermenter

The fermenter is a device (Device) to make Microsargs fun in a bio-mass Optimum provides the environment so that it is a product by interacting with the substrate. In the aftermath, the formation is done in the following bilateral ways.

Formation with intervals

In this process, the tank of the Fermenter is filled with the raw material that has to be made. Tamper Yashar and PhH for the Formation Ed is justified and extra nutrients are added. All Metier Mail is sterilized with the help of steam. The pure culture of the Microscopic and Organs is poured into the parameter through a separate drain (Figure 17.3). The fondness begins and the appropriate time After, the content of the framers is taken out. The fermenter is cleansed and the whole process is repeated. Thus in the mentation intervals Distributed is a non -continuous process.

The formation is done in the following ways

Continuous fermentation

Continuous Formation and the process are constantly poured into the substitute in the frame at a fixed speed. The micro organs inside it remain in the phase of fun growth.

Benefits of using Fernator

For any biotechnology process, it is important to be aware of and control the environment provided to the organisms. Fermenters provide a controlled environment. A fermenter maintains the proper growth of organisms by controlling several factors such as nutrients, oxygen, growth inhibitors (pH), and temperature.

A fermenter has a capacity of thousands of liters of growth medium. Fermenters, therefore, make it possible to produce large quantities of materials. Medicines, insulin, human growth hormone, and other proteins are produced in large quantities in fermenters and this production proves to be very low cost.

Genetic engineering

Genetic  Engineering or re-combinatorial DNA technology refers to the artificial preparation, modification, replication, and repair of inherited medullary DNA. Genetic engineering began in the mid-1970s when it became possible to cut DNA and create a

Fragments of DNA from an organism can be transferred to another type of organism. This results in the characteristics of another organism (host). If the host organism is a micro-organism, such as a bacterium, the amount of DNA transferred is that of the organism. The number increases as the number increases. Ninja A bacterium has millions of copies of specific DNA within a cell, making it impossible.

Genetic engineering

objectives of genetic engineering

The following are the main objectives of the Manic Engineer team.

1st

For different purposes, eg gene therapy, any part of the specific three genes can be isolated

2nd

Production of specific RNA and protein molecules

3rd

Improved production of enzymes, drugs, and other commercially important organic chemicals. Production of plant varieties with preferred characteristics

4th

Treatment of hereditary defects in higher organisms

Basic Steps in Genetic Engineering

All the above objectives can be achieved by following a few basic methods, which are as follows.

1. Isolation of the gene of interest

In the first step, the genetic engineer identifies the DNA sequence in the donor organism. Special enzymes called restriction endonucleases are used to cut the identified gene from the complete DNA of the donor organism.

2 Puts the gene into a vector

A vector is chosen to transfer the target chain of interest into the host cell. Any plankton (in many bacteria. Apart from chromosomes, and DNA) or a bacteriophage vector may be present. Integrate the UPK gene with the vector DNA.

Use Endonuclease to connect Endonuclease and Ligase Anzemeter.bAre done. Vector DNA and its connected genes to the Jean of Recombinant DNA as a whole Said

Steps in Genetic Engineering

For joining, endonuclease means cutting enzyme and ligase means joining enzyme are used. The vector DNA and the associated gene of interest are collectively referred to as recombinant DNA (DNA).

They say

3 recombinant DNA Transfer into the host organism

The recombinant DNA is transferred into the selected host. In this way, the host organism becomes a genetically modified organism (GMO).

4 Growth of the GMO

According to the requirement of Wingari's statement, an appropriate culture medium is provided to the GMO to obtain copies.

5 Expression of the Gene of Interest

A GMO has a native chain and produces the desired protein, which is extracted from the culture medium.

Genetic engineering’ achievements

Following are the various careers in Synthetic Engineering.

*Human insulin was introduced into bacteria. Inherited diabetes caused the bacteria to be able to produce insulin. Diabetics now take this insulin. The steps leading to the successful engineering of insulin production are shown in Fig.

*In 1977, an E. coli bacterium was created that could produce human growth hormones.

*The hormone thymosin (thymosin) has been produced by genetically modified microorganism peas, which may be effective in brain and lung cancer.

*Genetic engineering methods have also produced beta-endorphin, a painkiller chemical normally found in the brain.

*Genetic engineering has produced a safe vaccine against foot and mouth disease, a viral infection of cattle, goats, and sheep. Thus many vex were also made against human beings such as Hepatitis B

*Interferons (interferons) are anti-viruses that are produced in virus-infected cells. In 1980, interferon was first produced in genetically modified microorganisms.

*An enzyme called urokinase has been produced from genetically modified microorganisms, which is used to break down blood clots.

*Now it has become impossible to change what is present in a human cell. This will prevent or prevent hereditary diseases such as hemophilia.

*Monique engineering methods can also be used to treat blood disorders such as thalassemia and sickle-cell anemia. The canal vessels can be inserted into the bone marrow.

Single-cell protein

As far back as Manic Engineer, we read about heritably degrading microorganisms by inserting a bunch of beneficial proteases into them. Single-cell protein (SCP) refers to the protein content extracted from pure or mixed cultures of algae, fungi, or bacteria. Single. To produce cell proteins, micro-organisms are grown in fermenters

What are the advantages and disadvantages of single cell protein?

goes These micro-organisms are used in a variety of compounds such as agricultural and industrial wastes, natural gas such as methane, etc. Microorganisms Peas grow very quickly and produce large amounts of protein. The protein content made from microorganisms is also called novel protein (mini food).

Single-cell protein

We know that the world is facing a food shortage problem due to overpopulation. I will not be able to provide nutrients (especially proteins). Better solutions to food shortage problems (in humans and domestic animals). Single for The use of cell protein-producing microorganisms has met with widespread commercial success. This procedure is carried out by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) and was introduced by Professor Scrimshow Scientists and food technologists believe that single. Cell Proteins Human and other protein-containing foods in animal food will be an alternative.

All scientists are single. Recognize the importance of cell protein production. Microorganisms grow very quickly and produce large quantities. It is calculated that 50 kg of paste produces 250 tons of protein in 24 hours. 20 per annum produced in the pond

(dry weight) yield per acre. This production of protein is 10-15 times more than the production obtained from soybeans. While the production obtained from corn is 20-25 times more. When single using the paste. Cell proteins are manufactured as products It is also rich in vitamins. Single. Agricultural wastes as raw materials for microorganism pea in cell protein production are used and thus help in reducing pollution. Single. Bright future prospects with respect to the use of cell proteases are because they contain all the essential amino acids. Moreover, single. The production of cell proteins is independent of seasonal variations.
