Detailed explanation-1: -The genetic engineering process The gene for human insulin is inserted into the gap in the plasmid. This plasmid is now genetically modified. The genetically modified plasmid is introduced into a new bacteria or yeast cell. This cell then divides rapidly and starts making insulin.
Detailed explanation-2: -Why is using bacteria to produce insulin such an exciting prospect? It is made through recombinant DNA to build a human insulin gene that will make human insulin. How do lifestyle choices act as a medical intervention for people with diabetes? A healthy diet and exercise could help prevent complications.
Detailed explanation-3: -How can large amounts of enzyme be obtained if there isn’t sufficient source material? The gene encoding that enzyme can be cloned into another organism to produce the enzyme.
