1, artificial organs in the medical field, nerve repair, etc. Or use protein structure analysis data to develop corresponding inhibitors (such as enzyme inhibitors) for functional domains.
2. Military science and technology genetic engineering weapons are referred to as genetic weapons. Examples are: influenza virus with cobra venom gene inserted, and Escherichia coli containing anthrax virus.
3. Use the special metabolic pathway of industrial strains to replace some chemical reactions in industry. In addition to improving specificity, it also saves energy at normal temperature and pressure. Because of its high specificity and low waste, it is also called green industry.
Extended data:
The development of biotechnology has gone through two stages: traditional biotechnology and modern biotechnology, and fermentation engineering, among which genetic engineering is the core technology. Because biotechnology will open up broad prospects for solving major problems such as food, health, environment and energy.
Computer microelectronics technology, new materials, new energy and space technology are listed as high and new technologies, which are considered as the core of science and technology in 2 1 century. At present, the most active application field of biotechnology is biomedical industry, and biopharmaceuticals (usually referred to as recombinant drugs) are regarded by investors as one of the industries with the highest growth.
