When gene targetting involving gene amplification is attempted in an individual’s tissue to treat disease, it is known as : (1) Biopiracy (2) Gene therapy (3) Molecular diagnosis (4) Safety testing
Option 2) Gene therapy is a collection of methods that allows correction of a gene defect that has been diagnosed in a child/embryo. Here genes are inserted into a person’s cells and tissues to treat a disease. Amplification is sed to increase the expression of desired gene.
