Gene therapy. Gene therapy is the insertion of genes into an individual's cells and tissues to treat a disease, and hereditary diseases in which a defective mutant allele is replaced with a functional one. Although the technology is still in its infancy, it has been used with some success.
Best Answer: Largest electric motor is a linear motor. Made by Bombardier Corp. Used in world-wide rapid transit systems such as the one in Tokyo, Japan. Source(s): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_moto... The largest electric motors that I know of are on submarines and the largest one I am sure of is 5,000KW. I suspect that there are larger ones out there also. I can easily believe that the largest are on submarines.
Simply put, an electric motor can be defined as a machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. The first electric motors date back to 1740s when Scottish monk Andrew Gordon created electrostatic devices.s mentioned, the electric motor relies on electromagnetism. Upon placement of a coil carrying current (rectangular coil) in a magnetic field, a torque is generated that acts on the coil and forces it to rotate continuously.
