During the late 1970s and early 1980s, however, molecular biologists developed technologies for making customized synthetic DNA molecules. Robert Sauer used these techniques to make site-directed changes to DNA sequences of specific genes of known function and then to insert those variants into bacterial cells. He could then evaluate the effect of various targeted alterations to a DNA sequence on the function of their protein products within a bacterial cell culture.
