KCET · BIOLOGY · STD 12 - 9. Biotechnology: Principles and Processes
A transformed bacterium with human gene, fails to produce desired protien. The reason could be
- A Human gene may have intron which bacteria cannot process.
- B Amino acid codons for human and bacteria differ.
- C Human protein is formed but degraded by bacteria.
- D The bacterial promotor gene cannot induce transcription of human gene.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) Human gene may have intron which bacteria cannot process.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
(A) Human gene may have intron which bacteria cannot process.,
The rDNA having human gene was successfully inserted into the bacteria, but the transformed cells failed to produce the desired protein because of the inability to process the heterogeneous RNA.
