Scientists known about DNA since the mid-1850’s They could see various instructions
“1/2 tsp. sugar” “Fill up car with gas” “Do math homework”
But they couldn’t see the list – the sequence And they couldn’t see the structure
In 1953, James Watson & Francis Crick published the structure of DNA The Double Helix (Don’t get me started on Rosalind Franklin)

Quick Definition
Why do we use the terms “GENETIC” and “GENETICS”? “Genes” are portions, stretches, sequences of DNA Same as a sequential list of instructions within a
computer program

to the Business of Biotech?

In the late 60’s – the technology to splice into that twisted spiral came into being
Thus enabling scientists to produce
“Recombinant DNA”
“Recombinant DNA” is DNA that does not exist naturally – it is created by combining DNA sequences that would not normally occur together
“Recombinant DNA” ... is engineered DNA … it is Biotech
