7) You isolate a mutant strain of mice that grow at an unusually fast rate, perform a blood test on the mice, and find that they have elevated levels of insulin-like growth factor2. The phenotype is the result of a mutation in a region of the genome containing a gene encoding a DNA methylase. What kind of mutation is causing the rapid growth of these mice?

2. A dominant allele H reduces the number of body bristles that Drosophila flies have, giving rise to a “hairless” phenotype. In the homozygous condition, H is lethal. An independently assorting dominant allele S has no effect on bristle number except in the presence of H, in which case a single dose of S suppresses the hairless phenotype, thus restoring the "hairy" phenotype. However, S also is lethal in the homozygous (S/S) condition. What ratio of hairy to hairless flies...

Our understanding of RNA
was non-existent until 2000
started with the identification of a tRNA which suggested a
method of converting DNA to protein

You have a P-element induced mutation that is homozygous lethal. You think that the element might be inserted into the DMAP1 gene. Which of the following techniques can be used to confirm (or not) that DMAP 1 is the gene responsible for the lethality? Rescue using the DMAP1 cDNA ORNAi for DMAP1 Obtain a large deletion on the chromosome and test for failure to complement two of these all of these White eyed flies can be generated in several different...

2. Consider a gene with a particular function. Mutation X and mutation Y cach cause defects in the function of the encoded protein, yet a gene containing both mutations X and Y encodes a protein that works even better than the original protein. The odds are exceedingly small that a single mutational event will generate both mutations X and Y. Explain a simple way that an organism with a mutant gene containing both mutations X and Y...

4. You've recently discovered the sequences for two alleles for the mouse gene XCD, which you have creatively named XCD and XCD2. This gene is believed to be involved in fat metabolism, somehow, but you haven't successfully been able to isolate the protein yet. You've also noticed that your mutant grey coat mice tend to be much leaner and muscular than those with the standard white coat. So for your...
