Biosafety, ethics, and regulation of transgenic animals.

Transgenic animals—animals with genes added to their deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) (either from organisms or eventually synthesized genes never before present in living organisms)—will no longer be limited by the gene pool of their parents. Such animals are slated to be created expressly to provide vital and novel benefits for human beings. These animals can have desirable characteristics or traits from virtually any gene pool and may also possess properties not present in nature or available through conventional breeding. They will be created for the production of new medical and pharmaceutical products and to enhance meat, dairy, and fiber production efficiency.
