Question

) a. What is recombinant DNA vaccine?
b. Which pathogenic virus would mutate faster, one with DNA or RNA? Why?​

Answer 1

Answer:

A recombinant vaccine is a vaccine produced through recombinant DNA technology. This involves inserting the DNA encoding an antigen (such as a bacterial surface protein) that stimulates an immune response into bacterial or mammalian cells, expressing the antigen in these cells and then purifying it from them.

Explanation:RNA replication is more prone to errors than DNA replication. Hence, RNA offers more chances of mutation than DNA. In other words, DNA is more stable than RNA. Hence, a virus with RNA would mutate faster than a virus with DNA.
