Genetic Code

Question

Which of the following features of genetic code does allow bacteria to produce human insulin by recombinant DNA technology?

Moderate

A

Genetic code is specific.
B

Genetic code is not ambiguous.
C

Genetic code is redundant.
D

Genetic code is nearly universal.

Solution

Insulin produced by bacteria and humans have same sequence of amino acid. As the genetic code is universal the same codon codes for the same amino acid both in case of bacteria and humans. This universal nature of genetic code has been implemented in recombinant DNA technology.
