Across
  1. 2. technique that allows molecular biologists to make many copies of a particular gene
  2. 3. Procedure used to separate and analyze DNA fragments by placing a mixture of DNA fragments at one end of a porous gel and applying an electrical voltage to the gel
  3. 9. organism that is genetically engineered by inserting a gene from another organism
  4. 10. A cell present in adult tissues that generates replacements for nondividing differentiated cells.
  5. 11. Spelled the same backward and forward (restriction enzymes
  6. 12. twins who develop from a single fertilized egg that splits in two, creating two genetically identical organisms
  7. 14. Straight cuts in DNA without overhangs.
  8. 16. a segment of a DNA molecule
  9. 18. The insertion of working copies of a gene into the cells of a person with a genetic disorder in an attempt to correct the disorder
  10. 19. An international collaborative effort to map and sequence the DNA of the entire human genome.
  11. 20. the uneven ends of a double-stranded DNA molecule that has been cut with a restriction enzyme
  12. 21. An organism or vehicle that delivers genetic material into a cell.
  13. 22. A mechanical vector used to insert a new gene into a cell
  14. 23. A biological vector used genetic engineering

  1. 1. DNA produced by combining DNA from different sources
  2. 3. Tool used to shoot genes into cells
  3. 4. any cell of a living organism other than the reproductive cells.
  4. 5. An undifferentiated cell, taken from an embryo that has potential to give rise to various other cell or tissue types
  5. 6. Cuts DNA at a specific sequence of nucleotides
  6. 7. A tiny, nonliving particle that invades and then reproduces inside a living cell. Used as vectors in genetic engineering
  7. 8. A DNA segment that results from the cutting of DNA by a restriction enzyme.
  8. 13. Cells that are capable of developing into most, but not all, of the body's cell types
  9. 15. The analysis of DNA from samples of body tissues or fluids in order to identify individuals.
  10. 17. Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell: A laboratory technique that 'deprograms' differentiated cells through manipulation, restoring them to a pluripotent state.
