New genes created by genetic engineering produce brand new proteins called “novel” proteins. All proteins have the potential to trigger allergic reactions under certain conditions. Novel proteins are not recognized by the human immune system. In most cases, these proteins are tested in petri dishes rather than the plant itself. Describe at least one advantage and one disadvantage of the production of novel proteins.

AngeI:

If you create new proteins then that would be good to have an increased supply for obviously beneficial reasons. So that would be an advantage. As for disadvantage there are some possible health related issues due to the proteins since some people may have a sensitivity to them
