Can you list 10 recombinant proteins which are used in medical practice? Find out where they are used as therapeutics (use the internet).

●Recombinant proteins used in medical practice which  are obtained from the recombinant DNA technique . 

●In this technology a particular gene is transferred from one organism to another  organism with the help of vectors and restriction enzymes which act as   molecular tools.

● 10 recombinant proteins are –

1 .Interferon-α      – In treatment of chronic hepatitis C

2.Insulin- In the treatment of type I diabetes mellitus

3.Interferon-β –    Use to treat herpes and viral enteritis

4.Interferon B –    In the treatment of Multiple Sclerosis

5.Antithrombin III- Blood-clot prevention

6.Human recombinant growth hormone –     To promote growth in an individual

7.Coagulation factor VIII-     In the treatment of haemophilia A

8.Coagulation factor IX –    In the treatment of haemophilia B

9.DNAse I –    In the treatment of cystic fibrosis

10.Tissue plasminogen activator-     In the treatment of acute myocardial infections .
