Question

A human product that is being made in genetically engineered microorganisms includes ______.

विकल्प

• human growth hormone

• insulin

• tissue plasminogen activator

• all of the above

Answer 1

A human product that is being made in genetically engineered microorganisms includes human growth hormone, insulin and tissue plasminogen activator.

Explanation:

These are produced by inserting human genes into microbes like bacteria, which then express the proteins. For example, human insulin is produced in E. coli using recombinant DNA technology by linking insulin gene sequences to bacterial promoter regions to enable synthesis of human insulin chains, which are then purified and assembled. Similarly, human growth hormone and tissue plasminogen activator are also produced by genetically engineered microbes to provide safe, effective therapeutics.
