Ten recombinant proteins used in medical practice are −

Recombinant protein		Therapeutic use
1.	Insulin	Treatment for type I diabetes mellitus
2.	Interferon-α	Used for chronic hepatitis C
3.	Interferon -β	Used for herpes and viral enteritis
4.	Coagulation factor VII	Treatment of haemophilia A
5.	Coagulation factor IX	Treatment of haemophilia B
6.	DNAase I	Treatment of cystic fibrosis
7.	Anti-thrombin III	Prevention of blood clot
8.	Interferon B.	For treatment of multiple sclerosis
9.	Human recombinant growth hormone	For promoting growth in an individual
