messenger RNA (mRNA). DNA replication is typically carried out by attaching it
to a vector (such as a virus or plasmid) and introducing it into bacillus bacteria
(Fig. 4.11).
As with creating a music or video cassette, the organization and “editing” of the
genetic information that must be passed along requires a minimal set of suitable
tools: the glue, the scissors, and the replication device.
