  2. BBoth 1 and 3 are incorrect
  3. CAll are incorrect
  4. DOnly 3 is incorrect

Correct answer

D. Only 3 is incorrect

Step-by-step solution

The recombinant therapeutics do not induce unwanted immunological responses as is common in case of similar products isolated from non-human sources. At present, about 30 recombinant therapeutics have been approved for human-use the world over. Insulin used for diabetes was earlier extracted from pancreas of slaughtered cattle and pigs. Insulin from an animal source, though caused some patients to develop allergy or other types of reactions to the foreign protein. Insulin consists of two short polypeptide chains: c
