Recombinant DNA
Recombinant DNA. Illustration of the DNA molecule (Deoxyribonucleic Acid, showing a recombined fragment. DNA carries the inherited instructions of a living organism. Here, a segment of DNA (white, foreground) is joined to, and recombined with, a larger segment of DNA (blue, background). Recombination is used in genetic engineering to incorporate a gene sequence into a DNA strand. The DNA molecule is composed of two strands of atoms twisted into a helical shape. Each strand consists of an outer sugar-phosphate backbone (blue, white) from which nucleotide bases project and link up. The sequence of bases forms the genetic code

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of recombinant DNA, showcasing the intricate structure and potential of genetic engineering. The illustration depicts a DNA molecule, specifically highlighting a recombined fragment. In this process, a smaller segment of DNA is seamlessly joined with a larger one, symbolizing the power of recombination in incorporating gene sequences into strands. The image showcases the iconic double helix shape formed by two twisted strands composed of atoms. These strands are represented by an outer sugar-phosphate backbone in blue and white hues, from which nucleotide bases project and link up to form the genetic code. This visual representation beautifully illustrates how DNA carries the inherited instructions that define living organisms. With its vibrant colors and meticulous detailing, this artwork not only appeals to those interested in biochemistry or genetics but also serves as an educational tool for anyone seeking to understand recombinant DNA technology better. It highlights the significance of genetic engineering and biotechnology in advancing scientific research and medical breakthroughs. This print from Science Photo Library serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our ability to manipulate nature's building blocks for beneficial purposes. Whether displayed in laboratories or classrooms, it sparks curiosity about our understanding of life itself while celebrating the beauty found within science's most fundamental elements - molecules like DNA.
