D) formation of mutants

Question

The following figure provides you with an overview of recombinant technology.The end result is a transgenic bacterium with a human gene that codes for marketable quantities of a human gene product.However,molecular biologists frequently have problems with the product.One problem might be ________. 
A) production of a human protein that is unable to function properly 
B) formation of a bacterium that cannot synthesize the product 
C) a bacterium with DNA that is resistant to restriction enzymes 
D) formation of mutants

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The problem identified in the question is related to the production of a human protein that is unable to function properly due to various reasons such as incorrect folding, aggregation, or lack of post-translational modifications. This is a common issue in recombinant technology and requires further optimization of experimental conditions to ensure the correct folding and function of the protein. Options B, C, and D are not directly related to the identified problem.
