A community portal about Cloning with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Cloning is the process of creating an identical copy of an original organism or thing. Cloning in the biological sense results in a molecule, single cell or multi-cellular organism that has been directly copied from and is therefore genetically identical to the molecule, cells or organism being cloned. Sometimes this term can refer to "natural" clones, which may arise when an organism reproduces asexually by chance, but in common parlance, a clone is an identical copy created intentionally.

Cloning and characterization of ovine β2-microglobulin cDNAs

Beta-2-microglobulin (β2m) is the light chain of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I cell surface heterodimer. β2m is well conserved across most species with few polymorphisms seen within species. The aims of this study were to clone and express ovine β2m and investigate if allelic variation of ovine β2m exists. Ovine β2m clones were isolated from five sheep of three breeds by reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) . Sequence analysis showed that four ovine... Read Full Story

Scientist complete first step in the Cloning of a Woolly Mammoth

On Nov. 19, scientists from Penn State University announced that they had succeeded in piecing together the majority of the woolly mammoth's genome, bringing the world one step closer to the Jurassic Park fantasy of using recovered DNA to bring an extinct species back to a shaggy, lumbering existence.
 
The wonders of eBay allowed the scientists to purchase a $130 bag of 20,000-year-old woolly-mammoth hair from a vendor in Moscow, and the wonders of science allowed them to extract the... Read Full Story

Jurassic Park Comes True

Deep inside the dusty university store room, three scientists struggle to lift a huge fossilised bone. It is from the leg of a dinosaur. For many years, this chunky specimen has languished cryptically on a shelf. Interesting but useless — a forgotten relic of a lost age. Now, with hammer and chisel poised, the academics from Montana State University in America gather round. They are about to shatter this rare vestige of the past. Why would they do such a thing? - READ THE FULL STORY ON... Read Full Story

Winter Weight Donasian

Every winter, I put on weight. Even though I live in Los Angeles, where it's 80 degrees today, stingingly hot in the sun, and where I have no legitimate excuse for sitting on my ass all day indoors, except to communicate with you (and fritter my life away on Facebook). Also, I firmly believe that in my previous life, I was an inanimate object of some kind. If only there was some great use for my winter fat stores...like making outrageously adorable, fuzzy tummy-inspiring puppies! Magic and... Read Full Story

Whatever Happened To The Raelians?

Whatever happened to the Raelians? It is my guess that most of you reading this will say never mind ‘what happened’ but ask what are the Raelians? Five years ago, the Raelians dominated world headlines with the news that they were going to successfully clone the first human being. While the Raelians were quite outspoken about their quest for eternal life, they were short on specifics. They kept the media on the hook with promises of providing the needed proof. Background enquiries were... Read Full Story

Latest Scientific Ideas - Cloning Extinct Animals

Would You Spend $155,000 to keep your dog forever? Well, news has it that an American couple did just that!  5 years ago, they decided that they loved on of their pets so much, that they were willing to pay to have it’s DNA cryogenically frozen so that when the technology had improved enough - that they could get their little bundle of joy to walk again! And the technology was improved last year - and so now they have a little puppy which is exactly the same genetically as their first... Read Full Story
