I keep getting “Applications” questions wrong in Biotechnology & its Applications. What's the trap?
thinking genetically engineered insulin differs from human insulin.
The usual trap: thinking genetically engineered insulin differs from human insulin. How to avoid it: recombinant human insulin is identical to the body's own — that's why it works so well. Go back to the definition — genetic engineering gives us human insulin, Bt crops, and gene therapy.
