Hyperphosphorylation of proteins by the Sik3 protein explains:
a. why Dreamless mutants have reduced REM.
b. why Sleepy mutants are so sleepy.
c. why Dreamless mutants have increased REM.
d. why Sleepy mutants and sleep-deprived wild type mice are sleepy.
Homework Answers
Answer )b. why Sleepy mutants are so sleepy.
The Sleepy mutant allele of the Sik3 protein kinase gene markedly increases daily nonrapid-eye movement sleep (NREMS) amounts and sleep need. So single amino acid change or Phosphorylations produce a change in SiK3 and produce Hypersomnia Phenotype of Sleepy mutant mice .Such sleepy mutants are so Sleepy and have increased NREM type of sleep ( Non rapid eye movement ) .

IFN-B level (% wildtype) The transcription and production of a protein called interferon-beta (IFN-B) is regulated by a transcription factor called IRF3, which binds to DNA as a dimer of two 30KD monomeric proteins. The DNA- binding site of IRF3 contains the following amino acids: Arg - Lys -lle. Thr. I create four mutants of IRF3 by changing one of the amino acids of the DNA-binding site to serine, and then measure the levels of IFN- I transcripts made...

Three samples of tropomyosin fragments have been measured, one wild type and two mutants: Tpm WT, Tpm R91C and Tpm R91P. This fragment should form a coiled coil structure, therefore we expect to see spectra typical for alpha-helices. Our task is to find out if the mutations affect the structure and stability of this protein.

5.) You have discovered mutants in two new gene mutants in Drosophila. One mutant, curl, has small, curly, nonfunctional wings. The other mutant, big, has enormous eyes. You decide to test if these two new genes are on chromosome #2, so you perform a three-gene linkage testcross using a gene that you know is on chromosome #2, trp, a mutant that cannot make its own tryptophan (and so must get it from its food). In all three...

11. (20 points) You have isolated two mutants of a normally pear-shaped microorganism that have lost their distinctive shape and are now round. One of the mutants has a defect in a protein that you call A and the other has a defect in a protein that you call B. First, you grind up each type of mutant cell and normal cells separately and separate the plasma membranes from the cytoplasm, forming the first cell extract. Then...

6. Drosophila have antennae on their heads. Two mutants with abnormal antennae were obtained in a mutant hunt. After establishing true breeding strains of the mutants, Sally did the following crosses. Draw conclusions from her results. Suggestion: where helpful, outline the cross as a Mendelian set-up, choose letters. a. ant 1 X wild type, produced all flies with normal antennae. (2 pts) b. ant 2 X wild type produced all flies with normal antennae. (2 pts) Next Sally crossed the...
