The oligonucleotide d-ATGCCTGACT was subjected to sequencing by Sanger’s dideoxy method, and the products were analyzed by electrophoresis on a polyacrylamide. Draw a diagram of the gel banding pattern obtained.
Analogs of nucleotides are often used in studies of DNA. An analog is a modification of one of the normal bases that can be incorporated into DNA via replication and can later be detected for analysis. The thymidine analog 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine (EdU) is widely used in the laboratory for these types of experiments. However, EdU is toxic to cells, and inclusion of EdU in growth medium eventually causes cell death, unlike other thymidine analogs. Recently, a research team examined if cells recognized EdU as damage to the DNA and if the cells used the nucleotide excision repair (NER) systems to fix the DNA (see figure A). Human cells cultured in the lab were treated for 24 hours with either EdU or another thymidine analog, BrdU (blue circles in the figure). The cells were then exposed to UV light where damage would occur (red triangles in the figure). After 1 h of repair in the presence of the analog, the cells were lysed and excision products were separated from cells. An…

The anti-viral drug Acyclovir is a nucleotide analog that is lacking the 3’ OH group which is required to form a 3’→5’ phosphodiester bond. This drug is ineffective against DNA polymerases with proofreading abilities, which is why human DNA polymerases are not targeted. Acyclovir can be used to treatsevere cases of Epstein-Barr viral (EBV) infection, but has little to no effect under non-severe infections. Based on this information, EBV will use ________ DNA polymerase during severe infections and __________ DNA polymerase during non-severe infections. Human; Human EBV; Human EBV; EBV Human; EBV

Some molecules found in foods are known to be capable ofdriving DNA methylation or DNA demethylation. For example,folic acid (a vitamin), vitamin B12, and choline are thought toincrease methylation. Based on this consideration, why wouldit be important to avoid eating excessive quantities of suchmolecules (while being certain to eat sufficient quantities forhealth)?
