| dc.description.abstract | Broadcast Transcript: South Korean researchers, ever striving to be top in science, have cloned a glow-in-the-dark dog. The little beagle was engineered by inserting genes from species--like jellyfish--that produce fluorescent proteins. The gene in this puppy has an on-off switch triggered by food. When she is fed a certain type of antibiotic, she glows green under ultraviolet light. She was not cloned to be a novelty item. No. Dogs, it turns out, share 268 illnesses with people. The hoped for outcome is that this will lead to ways to turn genes for diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's on and off. At the very least, there is an updated version of a popular kid's book here. A black and white dog in a white light. A green dog in a black light. Glow, dog, glow. #ceas #hacker #SouthKorea | |
