Industrial biotechnology primarily focuses on harnessing the potential of microorganisms to produce valuable compounds, including pharmaceuticals, enzymes, and biofuels.

Recombinant DNA Technology involves the combination of DNA fragments from different sources to create a new DNA molecule, allowing for the introduction of specific genes into an organism.

Synthetic biology aims to engineer biological systems with novel functions or properties, enabling the creation of microorganisms with enhanced capabilities for industrial applications.

Insulin-producing bacteria are genetically modified to synthesize human insulin, a hormone essential for regulating blood sugar levels.

Microorganisms, such as bacteria and yeast, have short generation times and can be cultivated in large quantities, enabling the efficient production of desired compounds.

Restriction enzymes are enzymes that recognize and cut DNA at specific nucleotide sequences, allowing for the precise manipulation of DNA molecules.

Transformation refers to the process of introducing foreign DNA into a cell, resulting in the integration of the DNA into the cell's genome.

Synthetic biology enables the engineering of microorganisms with specific metabolic pathways, allowing for the production of bio-based chemicals, such as bioplastics and biofuels, from renewable resources.

Synthetic biology can be used to engineer microorganisms with the ability to degrade and remove toxic pollutants from the environment, contributing to bioremediation efforts.

Genetic engineering in industrial biotechnology aims to modify microorganisms to enhance their performance in industrial processes, such as fermentation and biofuel production.

DNA Ligation is a technique used to join DNA fragments together using an enzyme called DNA ligase, enabling the construction of artificial DNA molecules.
