Question

What are the objectives of transferring the rDNA into a living host?

• A. To increase the copy of rDNA naturally
• B. To start the formation of protein that the gene of interest encodes
• C. To make the rDNA to move along the generation of the host organism
• D. All the above

Answer 1

The correct option is D All the above

Recombinant DNA is made in order to obtain certain proteins that are otherwise very hard to extract. To get the protein in high quantity, it is important that the gene of interest is multiplied and several clones be created containing this gene. This happens when we allow the host organism with incorporated rDNA to replicate multiple times.
