Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -So, the correct answer is ‘Insulin’
Detailed explanation-2: -The first human hormone produced by recombinant DNA technology is insulin.
Detailed explanation-3: -’Recombinant human insulin’ became available in large amounts by recombinant DNA technology using fermentation in microorganisms (bacteria or yeast). Recombinant insulin has a superior level of purity and consistent quality compared with semisynthetic insulin.
Detailed explanation-4: -Insulin is the first hormone produced by genetic engineering. It was produced by the help of E. coli. It was first marketed in the name of humulin.
