Question

Using recombinant DNA technology, genes from a donor cell can be inserted into a bacterium for DNA replication and protein synthesis. The kind of cells that can be used as gene donors in this technology are

• A. Bacteria only
• B. Either yeast or bacteria
• C. Eukaryotic cells only
• D. Any of these

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

Any of these

The production of a recombined bacterium using a gene from a foreign donor and the synthesis of a protein encoded by the recombinant DNA molecule. The genes used as a donor in recombinant DNA technology are commonly obtained from bacteria, yeast or any eukaryotic host organism.

So, the correct option is 'Option D' .
