Abstract
ABSTRAKRekayasa genetika adalah transplantasi satu gen ke gen lainnya baik antara gen dan
lintas gen untuk menghasilkan produk yang berguna bagi mahluk hidup hidup. Pada
awalnya, rekayasa genetika hanya dilakukan pada tanaman untuk memecahkan
kekurangan pangan penduduk dunia, dan dalam pengembangannya rekayasa genetika
tidak hanya berlaku untuk tanaman dan hewan yang serupa, tetapi telah berevolusi pada
manusia dan lintas jenis. Prinsip dasar teknologi rekayasa genetika adalah memanipulasi
perubahan komposisi asam nukleat DNA atau menyelipkan gen baru ke dalam struktur
DNA mahluk hidup penerima, hal ini berarti bahwa gen yang disisipkan pada mahluk
hidup penerima dapat berasal dari mahluk hidup lain. Saat ini, penyebaran dan
penggunaan produk rekayasa genetika telah mengundang kontroversi masyarakat, oleh
karena itu tulisan ini bertujuan untuk meninjau kontroversi rekayasa genetika mahluk
hidup pada beberapa aspek kehidupan masyarakat.
Kata Kunci: gekayasa genetika, gen, DNA, GMO, kontroversi.
CONTROVERSY OF GENETIC ENGINEERING
PRODUCT CONSUMED SOCIETY
ABSTRACT
Genetic engineering is a transplant of one gene to an other gene both between genes
and gene cross to produce a useful product for living organisms. At first, genetic
engineering was only conducted on plant to solve the foodââ¬â¢s lack for world population,
and it does not only apply to the plants and animals are similar in its development, but it
has evolved in humans and cross types. The basic principle of genetic engineering
technology is manipulating the composition changes of the nucleic acid of DNA or
tucking new genes into the DNA structure of the recipient organisms, this means that
inserted genes on a recipient organism can be derived from the other organisms. Today,
the deployment and use of genetically modified organisms have been inviting society's
controversy, therefore this paper aims to review the controversy for genetically modified
organism (GMO) on several aspects of community life.
Keywords: genetic engineering, gene, DNA, GMO, controversy.
