    1. Genetic engineering allows scientists to produce complex molecules like proteins by identifying genes, cutting DNA sequences, inserting genes into vectors, and inducing host cells to produce the desired protein. 2. It has led to important new therapies like monoclonal antibodies, peptibodies, and vaccines that can treat diseases like cancer, blood disorders, and arthritis by replacing or augmenting naturally occurring proteins. 3. The text discusses how genetic engineering techniques are used to manufacture therapeutic proteins through recombinant DNA technology.

    Text:

    It is the cornerstone of modern biotechnology. It is based on scientific tools, developed in recent


    decades, that enable researchers to: identify the gene that produces the protein of interest, cut the
    DNA sequence that contains the gene from a sample of DNA and Place the gene into a vector, such
    as a plasmid or bacteriophage, use the vector to carry the gene into the DNA of the host cells, induce
    the cells to activate the gene and produce the desired protein and finally, extract and purify the
    protein for therapeutic use.

    It allows scientists to manufacture molecules that are too complex to make with chemistry. This
    has resulted in important new types of therapies, such as therapeutic proteins. Therapeutic proteins
    include those which are known as Monoclonal antibodies, Peptibodies and vaccines as well as ones
    that are used to replace or augment a patient’s naturally occurring proteins, especially when levels of
    the natural protein are low or absent due to disease. They can be used for treating such diseases as
    cancer, blood disorders, rheumatoid arthritis, metabolic diseases, and diseases of the immune system.

    Questions:
    1-The text is about:
    a-antibodies and vaccines b-manufacturing molecules
    c-the role of proteins d-genetic engineering
    2- Say if the following statements are true/false or not mentioned
    a- Producing a protein is long process. not mentioned
    b- A Gene is transported to the new cell with the help of a vector. true
    c-It is not possible to remediate to the problem of molecules manufacturing. false
    d- New modes of treatment give drug developers more options in determining the best way to
    counteract a disease. true
    3- Find in the text the words corresponding to the following definitions
    a- A DNA molecule used as a vehicle to artificially carry foreign genetic material into another cell.
    → therapeutic proteins
    b- A living body invaded by or capable of being invaded by an infectious agent such as a
    bacterium or a virus.→ molecules
    c- A group of two or more atoms that form the smallest identifiable unit into which a pure substance
    can be divided and still retain the composition and chemical properties of that substance.→ DNA
    4-How many passive sentences are there in the text? Choose the best answer:

    a-2 b-3 c- 5 d-7

    5-Classify the underlined words in the text according to their final “s” pronunciation

    /S/ /Z/ /IZ/


    Scientists, Tools, researchers, Produces, therapies, diseases

    6-Complete the following passage with words from the text

    When segments of DNA are cut and pasted together to form new sequences, the result is known as
    recombinant DNA. When recombinant DNA is inserted into host cells they use this modified
    blueprint and their own cellular machinery to make the protein encoded by the recombinant DNA.
    Cells that have recombinant DNA are know as genetically modified or transgenic cells.

    Good luck
