Question

For the production of unlabelled and huge amount of proteins, which of the following is true?

(a) Transcription is carried out in vivo and translation in vitro

(b) Transcription and translation both are carried out in vivo

(c) Transcription and translation both are carried out in vitro

(d) Transcription is carried out in vitro and translation in vivo

I had been asked this question in examination.

Question is from Synthesis of Proteins and Translation In Vitro topic in section Use of Cloned DNA of Genetic Engineering

Answer 1

The correct choice is (b) Transcription and translation both are carried out in vivo

To explain I would say: For having, large and unlabelled proteins, transcription and translation both should be carried out in vivo.
