  1. Cloning What is cloning?

  2. There Are Three Types of Cloning: • Gene Cloning • Reproductive Cloning • Therapeutic Cloning

  3. Definition of Cloning • The term describes a number of different processes that can be used to produce genetically identical copies of a biological entity.

  4. NHGRI • Gene cloning is the most common type of gene cloning at the National Human Genome Research Institute.

  5. Gene Cloning • Procedure consists of inserting gene from one organism (foreign DNA) into the genetic material of a carrier called a vector. ie. Bacteria, yeast cells. • After gene is inserted, vector multiplies resulting in the copying of the gene many times over where it can be studied by scientists.

  6. Potential Implications • The potential ethical implications are:
