Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Here are some commonly asked questions about Genetic Engineering to help you get started

What is the Central Dogma of molecular biology?

It describes the flow of genetic information: DNA makes RNA, and RNA makes protein

How does PCR amplify DNA, and why is it so important?

PCR rapidly creates millions of copies of a specific DNA segment using primers and DNA polymerase, crucial for diagnostics and research.

What makes CRISPR-Cas9 such a revolutionary gene editing tool?

It allows for precise, targeted edits to DNA with unprecedented accuracy and ease, revolutionizing genetic research and therapy.

What's the main difference between transformation, transfection, and transduction?

These are methods of introducing foreign DNA into cells: transformation (bacteria), transfection (eukaryotic cells via non-viral means), and transduction (via viruses).

What are the biggest ethical concerns surrounding genetic engineering?

Major concerns include designer babies, unintended environmental impacts of GMOs, and equitable access to genetic therapies.

Will I receive a certificate after completing this module?

Yes, upon successfully completing the module, you will receive a certificate of completion, which can be showcased on your resume or LinkedIn profile.
