What is Recombinant Protein?

Under Consideration

Recombinant proteins refer to proteins produced using recombinant DNA or RNA technology. Recombinant protein engineering first involves obtaining the gene of interest (GOI) through gene cloning or chemical synthesis. The GOI is then connected to a suitable expression vector and introduced into a specific host cell. By exploiting the genetic system of the host cell, functionally active protein molecules are expressed. Recombinant proteins are widely used for researching protein structure and function as well as developing therapeutics. This technology allows mass production of proteins that can be purified for various applications in biomedicine and biotechnology.
