What else can I help you with?
What happens when a scientists puts a normal human insulin gene in the DNA of a bacterium?
The insulin is slowly transformed into the bacterium as C6H12O6 is combined with the insulin to create this product. I know, I'm a biologist.
What do you mean by hereditary factor?
The factors that sale rate from eachother to create gametes
What system is most affected by diabetes?
Diabetes is when the immune system attacks the insulin making beta cells in the pancreas. This keeps the cells from getting energy. If cells have less to no energy, it affects the whole body
Insulin is to the pancreas as?
Insulin is the to pancreas as bile is to the liver in the way that they each produce these things. Though there are many another analogies you could create that would be equally true, if not more accurate, such as, Insulin is the the pancreas as erythropoietin is to the kidneys.
Why was george bernard shaw called as iconoclast?
because he destroys old tradition and create new culture.
Why protamine used with insulin?
Protamine is used with insulin to create a longer-acting formulation, often referred to as protamine insulin or NPH insulin. It acts by binding to insulin, which slows its absorption and prolongs its action in the body. This combination helps in managing blood sugar levels over an extended period, making it suitable for patients who require basal insulin support. The use of protamine allows for a more stable and sustained release of insulin, improving glycemic control.
What role does E. coli play in recombinant DNA Technology?
It helps to create human insulin.
What hormone is required for the normal use of glucose in the body?
Insulin is the hormone that allows cells to take up glucose. Insulin is synthesised and released from the beta cells in the islets of langerhans of the pancreas. Its release is stimulated by high blood glucose levels.
People with the hereditary disease hemophilia have what?
They have trouble forming blood clots due to the inability to create a certain protein needed to form a clot. Different types of hemophilia have different proteins that don't work. or for Plato users : lack one or more blood clotting factors
Which molecule from humans is inserted into bacteria to cause them to produce insulin?
The human gene that codes for insulin is inserted into bacteria to produce insulin. The gene is typically inserted into a plasmid vector, which allows the bacteria to express the human insulin gene and produce insulin. This technique is used in biotechnology to create recombinant bacteria that can produce insulin for medical use.
Does diabetes make you sick?
No, but it is a disease in which your body doesn't create natural insulin, so you must take shots of insulin directly in to your muscles. Without insulin, your sugar level rises too much; resulting in urinating sugar every 5-20 minutes, hospitalization, and in extreme levels even death. With too much insulin, your sugar level drops; resulting in a white blur upon closed eyes, unable to move, violently shaking, unable to swallow, and in extreme cases death. If your sugar level is too low, and you fall asleep; there is a great chance you will not wake up.
When insulin was being commercially produced in genetically engineered bacteria and yeast it was obtained from the pancreas of what?
When insulin was being commercially produced in genetically engineered bacteria and yeast, it was obtained from the pancreas of pigs and cows. This animal insulin was then purified and used as a template to create synthetic human insulin through genetic engineering processes.
