Textbook Question
Chapter 18, Problem 2PDQ
Review the Chapter Concepts list on page 345. All of these pertain to how genomics, bioinformatics, and proteomics approaches have changed how scientists study genes and proteins. Write a short essay that explains how recombinant DNA techniques were used to identify and study genes compared to how modem genomic techniques have revolutionized the cloning and analysis of genes.
