The process of attempting to cure genetic disorders by placing copies of healthy genes into cells that lack them is known as?

Answer 1

The process of replacing a defective gene with a healthy gene is called gene therapy. Gene therapy is done by cutting genes from the DNA of healthy cells and inserting them into the DNA of defective cells and tissues.

Answer 2

Gene therapy. In most gene therapy studies a 'normal' gene is inserted into the genome to replace an 'abnormal' disease-causing gene. A carrier molecule called a vector must be used to deliver the therapeutic gene to the patient's target Cells.

Currently the most common vector is a virus that has been genetically altered to carry normal human Dna. Viruses have evolved a way of encapsulating and delivering their genes to human Cells in a potentially pathogenic manner. Scientists have tried to take advantage of this capability by manipulating the virus genome to remove disease-causing genes and insert therapeutic genes.

Answer 3

They diactivate a virous that attacks genes and plant a healthy gene it the virous then in plant the virous in the child or adult they ither use a needle and put it strait in the body or cover it in fat an then you have to injest it.
