Answered by maham237 @



Insertion of human genes into bacteria, also known as recombinant DNA technology, is used for the large scale production of human insulin, using bacteria as the insulin-producing machinery. The gene containing information for insulin production is inserted into the DNA of bacteria, which transcribe and translate it, and insulin is produced.
