Two genes (B and C) are transcription factors that affect the expression of gene A. The protein product of gene B allows gene A to be transcribed while the protein product of gene C doubles the rate of transcription of gene A. How does the expression of gene A differ between two individuals with the following genotypes? Assume lower case alleles produce non-functional proteins and each gene shows complete dominance.
Individual 1: AA : BB : Cc
Individual 2: AA : Bb : cc
Homework Answers
Ans:
The High levels (double rates) of expression of gene A occurs in Individual I because individual I has both dominant alleles B and C (BBCc). So, the protein products of functional gene B and C allow gene A to transcribed at double rate.
The low levels of expression of gene A occurs in individual II because individual II doesn't has functional C gene (cc) products. So, the protein product of functional B gene (Bb) allows gene A to transcribed at low rate.

In sweet peas, two genes (genes A and B) control flower color. The dominant alleles of both genes produce enzymes that function in the biochemical pathway shown to convert colorless precursors to a purple pigment. The recessive alleles do not produce enzyme. Therefore, at least one dominant allele of both gene A and gene B are required for purple flowers. Answer the questions about this biochemical pathway.

Why would changes in the genes for transcription factors be expected to generate major phenotypic differences? They are extremely powerful genes. They can affect the expression of small numbers of other genes. Their gene products are remarkably stable. Their gene products normally denature more rapidly than other gene products. They can affect the expression of large numbers of other genes. Which enzyme, also responsible for siRNA formation, carves miRNAs from their double-stranded, fold- back RNA precursor (pre-miRNA)? Dicer ribonuclease RNA...
