Human insulin is produced in large quantities by?
Human insulin is produced in large quantities by recombinant DNA technology in bacteria such as Escherichia coli or yeast cells. The gene for human insulin is inserted into the DNA of these organisms, which then produce insulin protein that can be harvested and purified for medical use.
What is the process of making human insulin with bacteria?
The process involves inserting the human gene for insulin into a bacterial plasmid, which acts as a vector. The bacteria then replicates the gene and produces insulin protein. The protein is harvested, purified, and formulated into insulin for medical use.
What is one benefit and one risk involved in the use of transgenic organisms?
the benifits of involve transgenic organisms that we are found a new crops or new varities of plants...who has benifitted for production of seed.....and the own risk at that may cause a new deseases...
What kind of organism is used to produce human insullen?
The organism commonly used to produce human insulin is bacteria, specifically Escherichia coli (E. coli) or the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. These organisms are genetically engineered to produce and secrete human insulin, which is then harvested and purified for use in treating diabetes.
How is bacteria used to make insulin?
Human plasmids introduced into the bacteria stimulate insulin production. A special enzyme is used to cut out the insulin gene from a human cell. It is attached to a bacterial chromosome which is also split open by an enzyme. The gene is then transferred into a bacterial cell. The gene makes the bacterial cell produce insulin.
Can insulin be made by using transgenic bacteria?
Yes. In fact, currently insulin manufacturers worldwide use transgenic (recombinant) bacteria to produce insulin efficiently.
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
What of the following is not a use for transgenic organisms?
Using transgenic organisms as food sources is not a common use. Benefits of transgenic organisms include producing pharmaceuticals, understanding gene function, and improving crop resistance to pests and diseases.
What is an application of transgenic organisms?
Genetically modified microorganisms (GMOs) have been developed through the engineering of the genome by inserting desirable genes or deleting undesirable genes. Most applications have been with crops, where genes inserted into the plants provide resistance to a herbicide or produce an insecticide. However, GMO research is expected to continue to satisfy food security concerns and adapt to climate change. Creative Biogene

What is the difference between human and analog insulin?
Human Insulin, is a replica of the insulin found naturally in human beings. These are synthetically prepared. An insulin analogue however is an altered form of this human insulin, by addition,subsitution or substraction of one/or more amino acid chain/s. This is done to make insulin more safe and effective for human use.
What is the process of making human insulin with bacteria?
The process involves inserting the human gene for insulin into a bacterial plasmid, which acts as a vector. The bacteria then replicates the gene and produces insulin protein. The protein is harvested, purified, and formulated into insulin for medical use.
Why diabetic patient prefer to use sheep insulin than human insulin?
one of the reason might be its price.Human insulin is costlier then sheep insulin.
What is one benefit and one risk involved in the use of transgenic organisms?

How is insulin produced through genetic engineering?
Insulin is produced through genetic engineering by inserting the human insulin gene into a host organism, such as bacteria or yeast. The host organism then produces insulin that is identical to human insulin. This process allows for the mass production of insulin for medical use.
What animal gives us insulin?
Some diabetics claim that they get better control using insulin from cow or pig. The evidence is poor on support of the claim. Only one company in the world is licence to make insulin from animal extrict. Today 99% is made from 'human' DNA.
What kind of organism is used to produce human insullen?
The organism commonly used to produce human insulin is bacteria, specifically Escherichia coli (E. coli) or the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. These organisms are genetically engineered to produce and secrete human insulin, which is then harvested and purified for use in treating diabetes.
