What is Transgen?

Transgen is a part of genetic material from one organism that occurs in the DNA of another organism. Depending on several factors, Transgen may fail, can express in a way that differs from the one that is observed in the original organism, or can express exactly the same in the new organism as in the original. The gene is identified as a transgen when it has been seized in one species and later identified in another.

Some transgens occur naturally. For example, bacteria are very proficient in the exchange of genetic material, despite bacterial species, because it allows them to quickly adapt to changing environment. This is one of the reasons why drug resistance is a problem, because bacteria can not only go through resistance to drugs for members of their kind, but also potentially for members of other species. Genetic engineering is used to produce everything from creating a transgenic microphone for laboratory research for the development of new crops that will be resistant to controlI drought. In this case, it is identified and inserted into the genome of the target organism in the hope that it will express as needed into the target organism genome. For example, the subtitles were made at the beginning of the 21st century, when a man claimed to have made a rabbit that shone in the dark by inserting the jellyfish genes into the rabbit genome.

Transgen can be transferred to future generations, which is sometimes the cause of scientists' interest. Some people are afraid that transgenic organisms made in the laboratory could weaken wild populations of the same animals, or that the insertion of transgens could have unintended consequences that only occur when it is too late. In response to this concerns, sterility is sometimes created during the genetic engineering process, as in transgenic crops that should not be able with the reseing.

Transgens can be used and studied in many ways. Transgen can be used for example for purpose such as the introduction of human dOn laboratory animals for the purpose of studying human pathology without experimenting on people. The expression or lack of gene expression can also be achieved by transgens and transgenic organisms. For example, people may be curious about genes that seem to sleep in some animal species and wonder if these generations of ancestors are or whether they can be triggered.
