5 Main Enzymes Involved in Genetic Engineering | Biotechnology
The following points highlight the five main enzymes involved in genetic engineering. The enzymes are: 1. Restriction Endonuclease 2. DNA Ligase 3. Alkaline Phosphatase 4. DNA Polymerase and the Klenow Fragment 5. Reverse Transcriptase. Genetic engineering became possible with the discovery of mainly two types of enzymes: the cutting enzymes called restriction endonucleases and the joining enzymes called ligases. Restriction [...]
