प्रश्न

Explain how insulin can be produced using recombinant DNA  technology.

उत्तर

Production of insulin using recombinant DNA technology:

  • Extraction of mRNA (coding for insulin) from pancreas cell from human (donor)
  • With the help of reverse transcriptase making copy of DNA (c DNA) (coding for insulin)
  • Extraction of plasmid from bacterial cell.
  • Opening plasmid using restriction endonuclease.
  • Insertion of cDNA in plasmid and sealing it using DNA ligase.
  • Reintroduction of plasmid vector (recombinant vector) into bacterial cell (a competent host cell)
  • Culturing these cells to obtain multiple copies or clones of derised fragmant of DNA (cDNA).
  • Replication of plasmid and production of human mRNA which instructs the cell to make insulin (Humulin)
