Which of the following features of genetic code does allow bacteria to produce human insulin by recombinant DNA technology ?
Genetic code is not ambiguous
Genetic code is redundant
Genetic code is nearly universal
Genetic code is specific
Salient features of genetics code -
The code is nearly universe eg; from bactria it human, UUU would code for phenylalanine. Some exception are found in mitochondrial codons, and in some protozoans.
-
Genetic code is nearly universal. It means that the codons code for the same amino acid in all the organisms except for some minor deviations.This property of genetic code allows bacteria to produce human insulin through recombinant technology.
Genetic code is not ambiguous
Option 2)Genetic code is redundant
Option 3)Genetic code is nearly universal
Option 4)Genetic code is specific
