MCQ

Question

For monoclonal antibody production, mammalian expression systems are preferred over bacterial expression systems, primarily because:

Options

Choose one · Correct answer highlighted

mammalian cultures have better productivity mammalian cultures produce extra-cellular product simplifying the purification steps mammalian system provide necessary post-translational modifications Correct mammalian genes can only be expressed in mammalian systems

Explanation

This outcome reflects microbial physiology, where growth regulation and host interactions follow molecular programs. Option C captures this correctly because it corresponds to prokaryotic and viral strategies, consistent with textbook descriptions and experimental observations in microbiology.
