Explanation:
Transgenic cows are genetically modified (GM) cows. They have an extra gene or genes inserted into their DNA. The extra gene may come from the same species or from a different species.
Therapeutic proteins are usually synthesised in cell-based systems. In these systems, the desired gene is added to a cell, and the cell’s own machinery makes the protein. The 4 systems currently used to make therapeutic proteins are:
microorganisms, for example, yeast bacteria or fungi
plants
mammalian cells
transgenic animals.
