This process involves: Inserting the genetic code for the desired peptide into bacterial or yeast cells (commonly Escherichia coli or Saccharomyces cerevisiae ) Culturing these modified microorganisms in large-scale fermentation tanks Harvesting and purifying the peptide product through multiple filtration and chromatography steps Conducting rigorous quality control testing to ensure purity, potency, and safety For example, liraglutide and semaglutide are produced using recombinant DNA technology in yeast cells
Semaglutide has a reported half-life of roughly one week
