Transgenic Organisms• Organisms altered by genetic engineering.
• Genetic material changed by other than random natural breeding.
• Gene transfer-moving a gene from one organism to another.
• These require skill and knowledge to be carried out properly.

Genetic Engineering
Genetic material can be shared across scientific kingdoms.
Food plants engineered by bacteria produce human proteins.
Potential is virtually endless.

What is Genetic Engineering?Genetic engineering is a modern form of biotechnology - a broad
term describing processes such as cross-breeding, plant hybridization and fermentation.
While biotechnology has been used by humans for thousands of years, genetic engineering is a relatively new and rapidly developing technology that is raising public concern.
Genetic engineering focuses on the manipulation (blocking, adding, or scrambling) of the genetic material (the DNA) inside the cells of living organisms to block or add desired traits.

Examples of Genetic EngineeringAnti-sense technology: A gene controlling a trait is blocked.
Example tomato with delayed ripening for fresher flavor.Recombinant DNA: microorganism to plant: Transfer of genetic
material from a bacterium into cells of plants. Example: Insect resistant corn plants and pesticide resistant soybeans.
Recombinant DNA: human to animal: Human genes inserted into pigs to produce human hemoglobin.
Recombinant DNA: animal to plant: Fish genes inserted into plants to increase tolerance to cold.

Why use Genetic Engineering? Proponents of genetic engineering claim many
potential benefits of this new technology. Current medical applications include genetically engineered
human insulin, human growth hormone, gene probes to detect genetic diseases, and Hepatitis B vaccine. Genetic engineering shows the greatest promise for a HIV vaccine too!

Why use Genetic Engineering? The promised benefits of genetically engineered food production include:Reduced use of pesticides Reduced use of herbicides Reduced use of fertilizers Enhanced nutrition Drought resistance Better appearance Longer shelf-life Better flavor Temperature resistance Disease resistance Increase in food supply. Decrease in world hunger.

What are the potential risks of genetic engineered foods?
Opponents of genetic engineering raise concerns about the safety and ethics of creating novel organisms as well as the impact that genetic engineering will have on the environment

![Page 13: SC235 Unit Nine Dr. Angela M. Foster AFoster3@kaplan.edu AIM: AFoster3@kaplan.edu Image credits: Microsoft Clip Art](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062423/5697c0011a28abf838cc2a5a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
What are the potential risks of genetic engineered foods?Specific concerns include:Lack of long term studies on food safety. Lack of long term studies on environmental impact. Diminished opportunity for organic/sustainable agriculture Potential risk of rendering Bacillius thuringiensis (Bt), a natural biological
pesticide, useless due to widespread use of Bt-engineered crops. Potential life threatening danger for individuals with food allergies or
sensitivities who might unknowingly ingest altered foods to which they are allergic, sensitive, or intolerant.
New genetic structure of foods might result in new allergens.

What are the potential risks of genetic engineered foods?Toxicity levels of naturally occurring food toxins might result in new allergens. Toxicity levels of naturally occurring food toxins might inadvertently be
altered. Cruelty to animals. Unacceptability of creating novel organisms that would not occur through
traditional means of reproduction (crossing plants and animals or unrelated species of animals).
Environmental damage due to cross pollination and disturbed ecosystems. Pesticide tolerance. Herbicide tolerance Ethical and spiritual concerns.

Is there any way to know if our food has been genetically altered?
Not unless a labeling system is adopted. Currently, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not require
labeling of genetically engineered foods except when:The new genetically engineered food is nutritionally
different from the non-genetically engineered versions.
The characteristics of the food differ significantly from what is normally expected (e.g., the introduction of allergens or toxins).
