Is it true that it is possible to produce human insulin by using bacteria?

Yes. The modern day insulin analogs are produced by using recombinant DNA technology. Insulin glargine is an example of this. This is a long acting insulin analog that is typically dosed for diabetics once daily. It is commercially available through prescription as Lantus. Lantus is produced using a safe version of E. coli bacteria. More can be researched on this topic by searching these specific terms.
