*B and b are two alleles of the gene.
* Here B allele is the dominant form of gene. B encodes enzyme.
* Whereas b is the recessive form of gene and it does not code any enzyme.
let understand this with the help of example:
let B encodes enzyme which produce Blue colour, then b allele do not encode any enzyme and the phenotype is white in colour.
when we refer to the gene denoted by B and b, which enzyme does it encode?
Question 14 One gene typically codes for one enzyme. The gene and enzyme relationship is a bit more complicated.... Which one of the following statements is not true? In other words, choose the statement that is false Two mutations in the same gene can never have different effects, even when studied in great blochemical detail. One gene can specity parts of two enzymes if the enzymes have one type of polypeptide chain in common. One enzyme may be determined by...
A Lab has isolated a gene, CFE1, that encodes an enzyme (Cfe1) that completes one step of the conversion of caffeine into adenine. to check if CFE1 might be the gene that is mutated in one of the mutants discovered in the original screen. cross each one of the mutants with a strain that has the CFE1 gene fully deleted (cfe14). allow the resulting diploid strain to go through meiosis and produce haploid gametes (“spores") to individually check for the...
An animal virus can enter animal cells and hijack the gene expression system to encode for its own proteins. What sequence do we expect to find in the promoter region of viral genes? A. -35 region B. -10 region C. TATA box D. None of the above
6. We will say that the gene that controls enzyme 4 is symbolized by set in its dominant form (wild type) and se in its recessive form. The recessive allele, se, thus codes for a non-functional enzyme product. Can an individual that is se se or se se produce the orange pigment drosopterin? If so, what will be the fly's phenotype regarding eye colour? (2) 8. We will say that the gene that causes white-eyed flies is X-linked recessive. Wild...
Question 1 01. is The product of the lac Z gene is an enzyme. What does this enzyme do in the bacterial cell? splitting the β-linkage of lactose forming lactose from two glucose molecules forming ATP from pyruvate replacing hexokinase in the early steps of glycolysis nonautonomous replication
TalA is a gene that encodes for transaldolase, which is an enzyme in the pentose-phosphate pathway. TalA is a member of the CRP regulon and CRP represses expression of talA. Would talA be expressed when there is a high glucose concentration? Explain your answer.
1. As seen below, A-D refer to intermediates in the arginine biosynthesis pathway. Enzyme 1 Enzyme 2 Enzyme 3 Enzyme 4 AB+CƏDŹ arginine A particular mutant strain of Neurospora can grow in minimal media supplemented with intermediate D. It is unable to grow in minimal media alone or in minimal media supplemented with intermediates A, B, or C. This strain has a mutation in the gene encoding: a. Enzyme 1 b. Enzyme 2 c. Enzyme 3 d. Enzyme 4 2....
What is the "one gene-one enzyme theory"? How was it developed (i.e. what experiments did Beadle and Tatum do)? Why do we now call it the "one gene-one polypeptide theory"? How does alternative splicing change this theory?
1.Which of the following does NOT contribute to the possibility of a gene duplication event occurring? a. Low sequence homology b. Homologous Recombination c. Short, repetitive DNA sequences d. Misalignment e.None of these are correct 2.Which term is not correctly matched with its definition? a. Analogous structures - similar structures as a result of convergent evolution b. Homologous genes - genes related due to common ancestry c. Orthologous genes - genes related due to a speciation event d. Paralogous genes...
a. Which gene do 25% of Asians have as a Neanderthal variant? What does this gene do? b. Which modern disease do individuals with the Neanderthal variant have a predisposition toward? When would it be advantageous to have the Neanderthal variant?
