CONT

[In order to make a microorganism produce an industrially useful protein that it does not normally synthesize,] the idea is to transfer an individual gene coding for the desired product into a host microorganism and grow the organism in volume to yield the product. So far the bacterium Escherichia coli has served almost exclusively as the host because effective vector plasmids, whose DNA has been mapped in fine detail, are available for this workhorse of molecular biology.
