Answer: Option A. -> Escherichia
:
A
Human Insulin is being commercially produced from transgenic species of Escherichia coli. E.coli is a bacterium that is commonly found in the lower intestine of warm blooded animals. The bacteria can be grown easily and its genetics are comparatively simple and easily manipulated, making it one of the best studied prokaryotic model organism, and an important species in biotechnology.

Answer: Option B. -> Genetic Engineering Approval Committee
:
B
In India, GEAC (Genetic Engineering Approval Committee), makes decisions regarding the validity of GM research and the safety of introducing GM-organisms for public services. It has laid out rules for the Manufacture, Use, Import, Export, and Storage of hazardous Microorganisms/Genetically engineered organisms or Cells in India.

Answer: Option C. -> t-PA gene
:
C
Transgenic mice have been engineered to produce a protein that dissolves thrombi or blood clots in heart attacks called t-PA or human tissue plasminogen activator. The human gene for t-PA was fused with the mouse promoter gene for acidic whey protein which isthe most common protein found in milk. Thus, the human t-PA protein was produced in the milk of the mouse and was easily obtained in high quantities.
