Abstract. Genetic recombination refers to the exchange of DNA segments between chromosomes or other DNA molecules. In meiosis, genetic recombination ensures proper chromosome segregation and also reassorts DNA sequences on homologous chromosomes.efinitions. Genetic recombination refers to the rearrangement of DNA sequences by the breakage and rejoining of chromosomes or chromosome segments. It also describes the consequences of such rearrangements, that is, the inheritance of novel combinations of alleles in the offspring that carry recombinant chromosomes.
Another human hormone already produced by recombinant bacteria is GH (somatotropin, or growth hormone). The insertion of DNA molecules into the cells of an individual is also used in gene therapy, a promising treatment for genetic diseases.ecombinant DNA technology is used to create transgenic organisms, such as mutant insulin-producing bacteria. Nucleus transplantation technology is in its initial development but is the basis, for example, of the creation of âDollyâ the sheep.
