Correct option is D
The Correct Answer is: (d) proteins synthesised by transgene in host cell by rDNA technology
Explanation:
Recombinant proteins are proteins that are produced using recombinant DNA (rDNA) technology, where a gene encoding the desired protein is inserted
Recombinant proteins are proteins that are produced using recombinant DNA (rDNA) technology, where a gene encoding the desired protein is inserted
into a host cell (such as bacteria, yeast, or mammalian cells). This gene, often called a transgene, directs the host cell to produce the target protein.
Information Booster:
• Allows mass production of human proteins without needing human donors.
• Widely used in biopharmaceuticals and vaccine production.
• Insulin (Humulin) was the first FDA-approved recombinant protein in 1982.
• Recombinant proteins are highly pure, scalable, and specific.
• The process avoids reliance on animal or human tissues.
• Also used in gene therapy, diagnostics, and industrial enzymes.
