Documentary Analysis: Cracking Your Genetic Code

"The most valuable science program on TV called NOVA has produced a documentary on genome testing called Cracking Your Genetic Code (NOVA, 2008)." This documentary explains what genetic testing is and how genetically Testing and different technologies for all individuals who will benefit from these specific DNA technologies. DNA "DNA is a substance that controls eye color, hair color, and many other characteristics of humans and animals (Riley, 2005). DNA is derived from gene pairing between female and male gametes (Health & Prenancy, 2012).

Dr. Har Gobind Khorana in 1968 awarded Marshall Nirenberg and Robert Holley and Nobel Medical Physiology and Physiology Award and decoded the genetic code. They spelled out this code (a biological language common to all organisms) with three letter words: three nucleotides in each group code for a specific amino acid. Dr. Kolana is also the first person who synthesized oligonucleotides (nucleotide strings). Oligonucleotides are now an indispensable tool in biotechnology and are widely used in sequencing, cloning and genetic engineering in biological laboratories.

Sixty years ago, when scientists at Cambridge University and King's College in London discovered the structure of DNA, they decoded the genetic code and how it is replicated from one cell to the next, Replicated with. This discovery provides scientists with an unprecedented way to study the underlying causes of hereditary diseases and potential ways to treat them. It reveals the aging process, gives way to the initial sequencing technology, and eventually starts the Human Genome Project which is one of the most important scientific projects in history. Today, for the first time in history, scientists have been able to accurately analyze, increase, shrink and change the life codes of all creatures on the planet.

Since structural breakthrough, the genetic code of many animals, including humans, has been deciphered, which has led to advances in food and agriculture, forensics and evolutionary research. Mutations causing the disease have been confirmed, and in many cases this knowledge may enable preventative behavior and early treatment. As our genes became readable, scientists discovered ways to edit them. A great leap in the ability to change the genetic code is a gene modification process that uses an enzyme called Cas9 to edit DNA sequences in CRISPR, a very targeted manner. It can destroy genes and insert sequences, which has great potential for exploring the treatment of hereditary diseases. Editing a single gene can take up to 2 years before CRISPR; use of CRISPR can be done in a few days. It is also very cheap and it makes it very easy to do research
