A protein binds a DNA sequence downstream of a promoter. This results in an increased rate of transcription of the gene. Which of the following site is likely to be attached?
a. Operon
b. Terminator
c. Activator binding site
d. Promotor
The following are produced by algae To prepare the insert for the gene cloning, you need to find a proper source of the DNA fragment. PCR is one of the most common ways to get the gene that you are interested in? In terms of PCR, which statement is wrong?
a. PCR requires specific DNA polymerase that can withstand the heat.
b. PCR can provide the information on abundance of specific gene targets.
c. Denaturation is the first step of PCR.
d. Primers used in PCR represent a starting place for replication.

    You wish to determine if there is a mutation somewhere within the promoter of the adult b-globin gene that could possibly be responsible for a case of b-thalassemia. Which ONE method, when compared to the same process performed on wild type DNA, would NOT provide you with information that could be consistent with this idea? A) Prepare a pair of 18 nucleotide long primers that hybridize upstream and downstream of the promoter, perform PCR, and sequence the resulting fragment B)...

    In rho-dependent transcription termination: the formation of a hairpin in the transcribed mRNA causes RNA polymerase to pause, facilitating termination. rho binds the mRNA, and when it makes contact with RNA polymerase, it assists with the removal of the mRNA from the DNA template. the rho factor binds to the -10 consensus sequence located in the promoter region to terminate transcription. a site within the poly(A) tail is cleaved which signals termination. the 3' untranslated region (3" UTR) is synthesized....

    1. The map of the SheDoesntEvenGoHere operon is... P LAst Ics The promoter (P) region is the start site of transcription through the binding of the RNA polymerase molecule before actual mRNA production. The operon functions similarly to the lac operon, but has to do with the metabolism of muffins; therefore muffins are the effector molecules here. Just downstream of the promoter is the operator sequence (L). Lexus, coded by the Ast gene, is similar to permease while Secrets, coded...

    You are using a ChIP assay to study the positioning of a DNA-binding transcription factor (Dbp1p) on transcribed genes. You fragment DNA from wild type cells and immunoprecipitate Dbp1p with an antibody to it. Then you PCR amplify the DNA associated with Dbp1p using different sets of primers for a particular gene (G3PD). One set of primers was specific for the TATA box region of this gene, (lane 1) another pair of primers amplified the 3’ end of the open...
