summarize in different words?

can someone please help me summarize this into different words please? thanks!

Expiramental procedures have been developed that allow recombinant DNA molecules to be engineered into a test tube. From a wide variety of retriction enzymes available, scientists choose one or two that recognize particular sequences of DNA within a longer DNA sequence of a chromosome. The enzymes are added to th DNA, Which is cleaved at the recognition sites. Because the cleaved fragments have ends that are available for attachments to complimentary strands, the fragments can be added to the plasmids or to viral DNA that has been similarly cut. When the DNA fragment has been incorporated into the plasmid or virus, it is called recombinant DNA.

How does the flow of genetic information from DNA to protein not apply to viruses?

The flow of genetic information from DNA to protein in eukaryotic cells is called the central dogma of Biology. The central dogma does not apply to come viruses. Select the specific virus or type of virus and explain how it deviated from the central dogma

Is there a Dr like House in the U.S.A?

Is there a Dr. like House in U.S.A? My son was diagnosed as HIV positive. We read that false positives can occur and may be result if patient had heptitis vaccines as child or other factors. The health dept had to special order Hept B vacines for my son when he was 1 due to we found out his father had active Hept B and was dying from it. Dr were unable to determine how long father had disease so could have been active when I conceived son. Could this be in son’s DNa makeup and cause false HIV positive test? How can we find out for sure? My son also is ADHD and was on raitlain for years could this affect test? Son is also super sensitive to smells, has lots allergies, gets migrains all his life, extremely intelligent almost photgraphic memory. Son was diagnosed with chickenpox virus in one of nerves going to brain his Sr. year and was very very ill from this and antibotic treatment they put him on. He has sleep issues as well functions on little sleep. Please help. He is only 24 and since bio-father died when he was 3 and his stepfather died unexpectedly his senior year it has just been myson and I trying to raise his baby sister and adopeted cousins. I can not lose my son. He is on my insurance until July then age limit kicks him off. Where can I find team dr.s like House who can save his life?.

Discuss the use of genetically engineered recombinant viruses as vectors for gene transfer?

i would like to know how virus can be used to insert a gene without causing disease and examples in which this method is used and why

Questions on Gene Regulation/Expression?

1. What is the most important stage for regulating gene expression?

(is it the unpacking of choromosomal DNA?)

2. Following transcription, mechanisms that regulate gene expression may include which of the following:
A. initiation of translation
B. breakdown of RNA
C. protein alteration
D. initiation of translation, and protein alteration
or
E. initiation of translation, breakdown of RNA and protein alteration

3. A virus infects a cell and randomly inserts many short segments of DNA containing a stop codon throughout the organisms chromosomes. This will probably cause:

A. manufactured proteins to be short and defective
B. all of the above
C. incorrection pairing between mRNA codons and amino acids
D. no bad effects, as long as the stop codons are not also inserted into tRNA
or
E. the DNA to break up into thousands of short segments

what is the lytic cycle?

i looked online and they give all of these confusing answers!!! i found this, but it doesnt make sense
•Attachment of virus to host cell
•Infection of DNA/RNA into the host cell
•Virus turns off the host cell’s genes
•Host cell manufactures the proteins and DNA/RNA
•Assembly of the viruses from proteins and DNA/RNA
