Abstract

Recombinant DNA technology was merely a theory a century ago when it came to improving desirable traits in live organisms by regulating the expression of target genes. Nonetheless, in more recent times, this field has proven to have distinctive effects in advancing human life. This technology makes it possible to securely, economically, and sufficiently generate essential proteins needed for nutritional needs and health issues. This technique has interdisciplinary applications and the ability to address significant facets of life, such as boosting food resources, enhancing health, and resistance to many harmful environmental effects. Genetically modified plants, particularly in agriculture, have increased resistance to hazardous agents, improved product yield, and demonstrated increased adaptation for better survival. Recombinant medications are also currently being used with confidence and gaining commercial authorization quickly. Recombinant DNA technology, gene therapy, and genetic modification techniques are also frequently utilised in bioremediation and the treatment of serious illnesses. This review article primarily focuses on the significance of recombinant DNA technology and its potential applications in daily life because of the technology's great advancement and a wide variety of applications.

Keywords: DNA technology, desirable features, gene therapy, pharmaceuticals.
