Column-I Column-II (a) Gene therapy for ADA deficiency (i) Human protein production in transgenic cows (b) Use of plasmids in insulin production (ii) Treatment of genetic disorders (c) Transgenic mice in vaccine testing (iii) Production of insulin chains (d) Human protein α-1-antitrypsin (iv) Testing vaccine efficacy
Choose the correct matching:
a-ii, b-iii, c-iv, d-i
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i
a-iii, b-ii, c-i, d-iv
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Gene therapy for ADA deficiency is aimed at treating genetic disorders. The production of insulin involves the use of plasmids to create insulin chains. Transgenic mice are being developed for vaccine testing, and human protein α-1-antitrypsin is produced in transgenic cows for therapeutic purposes.
