- folded correctly to be biologically active
- produced in very small quantities
- mixed with bacterial proteins
- unstable and breaks down quickly

- amplified by PCR
- separated by gel electrophoresis and transferred to a membrane
- injected into a patient
- used to create a vaccine
- the antibody produced by the immune system
- a molecule (often a protein or polysaccharide) from a pathogen that triggers an immune response
- the fluid component of the vaccine
- a cell of the immune system
- the strength of the sugar-phosphate backbone
- the specific base-pairing rules (A with T, G with C)
- the electrical charge of the DNA molecule
- the number of genes in the genome
- Recombinant insulin
- Monoclonal antibodies
- Aspirin (originally from willow bark, now synthesized chemically)
- Human growth hormone
- diabetes
- emphysema
- hemophilia
- heart attacks
- eliminating the risk of the pathogen reverting to a disease-causing state
- being administered without needles
- only including the necessary antigens to provoke an immune response
- using a much smaller dose than other vaccines
- the patient has the mutation
- the test is inconclusive
- the patient's DNA does not have the sequence complementary to the probe
- the probe was too long
- be a one-time, permanent cure rather than a lifelong treatment
- be completely free of any side effects
- work for all types of diseases, including infections
- be administered without a doctor's help
- the actual viral protein (antigen)
- a live, weakened virus
- a plasmid containing the gene for a viral antigen
- pre-made antibodies against the virus
- derived from a mixture of different B-cells
- produced by a clone of a single, specific hybridoma cell
- naturally found in the blood of all healthy individuals
- made from plant extracts
- using the live, infectious bacteria
- using a dead version of the bacteria
- using only the toxin produced by the bacteria, but treating it with chemicals to make it harmless (inactivated)
- using the genetic code for the toxin
- use a DNA probe directly on the sample
- convert the viral RNA into complementary DNA (cDNA) using reverse transcriptase
- use monoclonal antibodies against the patient's DNA
- culture the virus for several weeks
- regulate blood sugar
- promote growth
- inhibit the secretion of other hormones, including growth hormone
- stimulate the immune system
- making every individual 100% immune to a disease
- protecting unvaccinated, vulnerable individuals by having a high percentage of the population vaccinated
- a type of vaccine made from animal herds
- immunity that only lasts for a very short time
- Sheep and goats
- Chickens and ducks
- Mice and rats
- Cows and pigs
- live-attenuated vaccine
- toxoid vaccine
- whole-cell vaccine
- subunit vaccine
- using antibodies to detect a pathogen
- amplifying a small, specific segment of DNA to detectable levels
- using a DNA probe without any amplification
- sequencing the entire genome of the patient
- deliver nutrients specifically to cancer cells
- target and bind specifically to antigens present on cancer cells, flagging them for destruction
- increase the rate of cell division in tumors
- make cancer cells resistant to chemotherapy
