What bacterias produces oxygen?
Cyanobacteria or blue-algae are microbes that produce oxygen through the process of photosynthesis. Some scientists believe that these bacteria were the first to produce oxygen on Earth.
What is an example of a product in science?
An example of a product in science is insulin, a hormone used to regulate blood sugar levels in individuals with diabetes. Insulin is produced through recombinant DNA technology, where genes for insulin are inserted into bacteria to produce large quantities of the hormone. This biotechnological process exemplifies how scientific advancements can lead to effective medical treatments that improve health outcomes.
How are gm foods made?
GMOs are genetically modified organisms. In general they are made by taking DNA from a source and putting it into the cells of a target organism to produce a desired trait. More specifically, in crops a gene from a bacteria or other organism is forced into the cells of the plant to produce a desired trait. Often the trait is either resistance to a herbicide or production of a substance in the plant itself to kill insects.
Which best describes how scientists found he human gene that makes insulin?
they worked backwards from mRNA to DNA Ap#x
How do scientists produce a scientific Theory?
by using the scientific method.
Can insulin be made by using transgenic bacteria?
Yes. In fact, currently insulin manufacturers worldwide use transgenic (recombinant) bacteria to produce insulin efficiently.
Why do transgenic bacteria that have the gene for human insulin produce insulin produce in great abundance?
bacteria reproduce quickly. The more transgenic bacteria there are, the more insulin is produced. (I am taking an online Biology course and this question was asked, and this was the answer the online class gave me)
Is production of human insulin transgenic organism?
Yes, human insulin can be produced through genetically engineered organisms, such as transgenic bacteria or yeast. These organisms are modified to express the human insulin gene, allowing them to produce insulin that is identical to the insulin produced by humans.
Scientists use bacteria to produce?
Insulin-producing bacteria were commercialized in 1982.
What Transgenic bacteria can be used to produce?
Genetically modified bacteria can be used to produce. This is a transgenic bacteria.
To produce transgenic bacteria that make insulin what step did researchers have to take first?
Use a restriction enzyme to cut the insulin gene from human DNA. 5175286717
Why do transgenic bacteria that have the gene for human insulin produce insulin in great abundance?
It is the easiest way for this protein to be produced. The DNA encoding human insulin can be put under the control of a constituitively active promoter and transfected into bacteria, which then produce the protein with their cellular machinery.
Is human insulin use for transgenic organisms?
Yes, human insulin can be used in transgenic organisms, particularly in the production of genetically modified bacteria or yeast that can synthesize insulin. By inserting the human insulin gene into these organisms, they can produce insulin that is structurally identical to human insulin, facilitating its use for diabetes treatment. This biotechnological approach enhances insulin production efficiency and can lower production costs compared to traditional extraction methods from animal sources.
Give an example of a transgenic bacteria?
Transgenic bacteria, being artificial in their genetic codes, are found in abundance in the scientific community. They are derived from the natural bacterial species and a gene inserted into them makes them transgenic. This gene insert is done to obtain some specific function, like the production of some important pharmacological product. An example of this would be the bacteria used to produce synthetic insulin. The bacterial names vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, but the base organism used is E. coli.
E. coli that contains the genes for human insulin is?
E. coli that contains the gene for human insulin is genetically engineered, transgenic, and a GMO. Bacteria have been engineered to produce chymotrypsin, make human insulin, produce enzymes that increase shelf life of bread, and to produce enzymes that improve the taste and clarity of beer.
How can genetic technology allow us to create human insulin using bacteria?
We are able to "splice" genes from one organism into the DNA of another to give it traits we want. In this case, we put the gene for insulin into the DNA of a bacterium, which causes it to produce insulin, which we can use.
How are transgenic organisms useful in medicine and agriculture?
Transgenic organisms could be used to make a new type of protein. For example, give a bacteria a new gene. The bacteria can then make the protein coded by the new gene. The protein may end being something such as human insulin or some other protein the bacteria don't normally produce. Your welcome Habs 13
