Werner Arber, Nobel Laureate 1978 Interestingly,
naturally occurring molecular evolution, i.e.
the spontaneous generation of genetic variants
has been seen to follow exactly the same three
strategies as those used in genetic
engineering14. These three strategies are (a)
small local changes in the nucleotide
sequences, (b) internal reshuffling of genomic
DNA segments, and (c) acquisition of usually
rather small segments of DNA from another type
of organism by horizontal gene transfer.

However, there is a principal difference between
the procedures of genetic engineering and those
serving in nature for biological evolution. While
the genetic engineer pre-reflects his alteration
and verifies its results, nature places its
genetic variations more randomly and largely
independent of an identified goal.
