DNA profiling - Wikipedia

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
As a biotechnology student, there are various aspects of the human body that I like most, and DNA fingerprinting is a portion of molecular biology. DNA is something that is unique to each person, which is what piqued the public's attention. As this is a particular interest of mine, I have conducted study on this issue and participated in a project titled "Is it feasible to alter the DNA?" Therefore, I acquired a great deal of information from several sources for my study.

The functional analysis of genes and their coding sequences (open reading frames [ORFs]) typically requires that each ORF be expressed, the encoded protein purified, antibodies produced, phenotypes examined, intracellular localization determined, and interactions with other proteins sought. In a study conducted by the life science company Nucleix and published in the journal Forensic Science International, scientists found that an in vitro synthesized sample of DNA matching any desired genetic profile can be constructed using standard molecular biology techniques without obtaining any actual tissue from that person.

There was a portion of the text that I cut out due to the following reason: The article "A new test distinguishes between real and fake genetic evidence" that was originally published on MIT technology was subsequently pulled from the website. The reason for this was because the technology was untested and led to erroneous information.
