New genes created by genetic engineering produce brand new proteins called “novel” proteins. All proteins have the potential to trigger allergic reactions under certain conditions. Novel proteins are not recognized by the human immune system. In most cases, these proteins are tested in petroleum dishes rather than the plant itself.

Describe at least one advantage and one disadvantage of the production of novel proteins.

What is a codon and where is it found

3points hurry! what is the relationship between biotechnology, sharkskin, and disease resistance? bioengineers have developed an artificial sharkskin that does not allow resistant bacteria to grow on it. disease-causing microbes have been genetically modified to keep them from infecting the skins of sharks. scientists have created a device that can be attached to the skins of sharks that dramatically increases their abilities to resist disease. sharkskin produces many chemicals that can be collected and used to create antibiotics.
