Abstract EN

In the past century, the recombinant DNA technology was just an imagination that desirable characteristics can be improved in the living bodies by controlling the expressions of target genes.

However, in recent era, this field has demonstrated unique impacts in bringing advancement in human life.

By virtue of this technology, crucial proteins required for health problems and dietary purposes can be produced safely, affordably, and sufficiently.

This technology has multidisciplinary applications and potential to deal with important aspects of life, for instance, improving health, enhancing food resources, and resistance to divergent adverse environmental effects.

Particularly in agriculture, the genetically modified plants have augmented resistance to harmful agents, enhanced product yield, and shown increased adaptability for better survival.

Moreover, recombinant pharmaceuticals are now being used confidently and rapidly attaining commercial approvals.

Techniques of recombinant DNA technology, gene therapy, and genetic modifications are also widely used for the purpose of bioremediation and treating serious diseases.

Due to tremendous advancement and broad range of application in the field of recombinant DNA technology, this review article mainly focuses on its importance and the possible applications in daily life.
