Genetics
is also called the science of heredity, derived from the word genos
(latin language) which means the tribes - ethnic or origin. In "etymology" means the origin of the incident. However,
genetics is not a science about the origins of the incident even though
the limits - a certain extent it has something to do with it. Genetics is the study about the ins and outs of biological information transfer from generation to generation. Because
of the way over the course of biological information underlying the
differences and similarities between the properties of individual
organisms, it may briefly be said that genetics is the study of
heredity. In
science is learned about how the nature of the offspring is inherited
in their offspring, and possible variations that arise therein.
Genetics
need to be studied, so that we can know the nature - the nature of our
own offspring, and every living creature that exist around our
environment. We as humans do not live autonomous and isolated from living things around us but we are having with their ecosystems. Therefore,
in addition we must know the nature - the nature of the decline of our
own bodies, we also need to know the plants and animals. Besides the principle - the principle of genetics is the same for all beings.
Developmental
genetics started in the development of biotechnology is growing, it is
with the temukannya recombinant DNA technology. Therefore, the development of more advanced genetics. With
the development of recombinant DNA is the optimization of
biotransformation in a biotechnological process can be obtained with a
more focused and direct. Recombinant DNA technology or genetic engineering allows us to construct, not just isolate, a highly productive strain. Prokaryotes
or eukaryotes can be used as "biological factories" to produce insulin,
interferon, growth hormone, anti-virus material, and a wide range of
protein size. Recombinant
DNA technology also enables the production of certain compounds that
are naturally very small amount, so it is not economical when it is
extracted directly from the source.Now
the organism which is the object of genetic engineering, not only to
plants, animals, cells, and bacteria, but humans are now the object of
genetic engineering. Scientists
are constantly looking for ways on genetic engineering on humans, keep
digging, and trying to figure out how to successfully realize their
desire to be able to do genetic engineering on humans. Surely this is a very risky thing among the people and their pros and cons to it appear.We
already know that humans were created by God, the One Almighty created
the universe, in the context of religion is considered to have occurred
would have been distorted beliefs of our faith in God who creates, like
people say "Human Genetic Engineering against it asequal kekusaan God. We
are created by God, we are now created by him trying to make that into
his power ", some scientists in this field are considered 'crazy' with a
desire to accomplishment. In Islam, has described the process of human creation, God said:"And indeed We created man from a quintessence (derived) from the ground. Then We placed him as semen (stored) in a solid place (the womb). Then
We made the semen blood clot, then We made the clot a lump of flesh,
and a lump of flesh bones that we made, and then we wrap the bones with
flesh. Then We made him a creature of the form (other). So it be to Allah Almighty, Creator of the Most Good. "(Al Mukminun: 12-14)Genetic
engineering is the engineering of human genetic information in humans
starts from exploring the functions, roles and capabilities of each of
the genes in the human body, some of these engineered genes are genes
that determine human physical (human body parts to make it look more
complete as desired ),
cancer-causing genes which prevent cancer growth and anticipate
tumbuuhnya on the human body, genes that make up the memories, the genes
that regulate the level of intelligence and thinking patterns, and even
specific genes that regulate the human age (or younger in order to slow
down the aging). This
is based on the human desire to create a perfect man, the man who with
perfect intelligence, a human with perfect physical, and perhaps humans
are immune to the disease.The process of Genetic Engineering in Humans"Human Cloning"Human
cloning is the process of genetic engineering for human reproduction is
asexual (without starting the process of egg fertilization by sperm,
but taken from the nucleus (nucleus) of a cell. In the technology of
human cloning (human cloning), in addition to required cells to be
cloned, it is necessary Similarly ovum (egg) and the uterus, since ovum can not be cloned and without a uterus, cloned cells in the ovum will die.In
the process of human cloning, which was first performed on sperm and
ovum fertilized outside the womb, after cleavage (up to 64 divisions)
and then implanted in the uterus, then its nucleus removed and replaced
with the nucleus of human cells to be cloned or done by taking cells body
(somatic cells), which has taken her cell nuclei (nucleus) of the human
body which then implanted in the egg (ovum) female. Differences
in natural conception (which is common according to nature) comes from
the union of sperm and ovum contains 23 chromosomes which have 23
chromosomes, when fused to 46 the number of chromosomes so that the
resulting child will have the characteristic traits from both parents. While
in the process of cloning, cells taken from human body already contains
46 chromosomes, so that the children who result from cloning only
inherits the properties of the source making the body cell nucleus. The next process similar to the usual process of pregnancy.
Simple explanation of the cloning process:Preparing stem cells: an initial cell which will grow into a variety of body cells. These cells taken from humans who want cloned.· Stem cells taken the cell nucleus that contains genetic information and then separated from the cell.· Prepare the egg cell: a cell taken from a female volunteer and essentially separated.· The core cells from stem cells implanted into an egg cell· The egg cell is triggered to occur division and growth. After dividing (day two) into embryonic cells.· Embryo cells continue to divide (called a blastocyst) begin to break away (day five) and implanted into the womb ready.· The embryo grows in the womb of a baby with a genetic code identical to the donor stem cells.Source:
