SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, enters cells by binding the cell surface protein ACE2. Which do you expect is true of mouse ACE2? Its sequence is similar to the sequence of human ACE2 Its sequence is identical to the sequence of human ACE2 Its sequence bears no similarity to that of human ACE2
Concept 23. A gene is a discrete sequence of DNA nucleotides. This concept describes the discovery of the DNA sequencing technique that made modern biology and bioinformatics possible. The method was later used to sequence the human genome and genomes of many other organisms. This led to the accumulation of great numbers of nucleotide and protein sequences in the numerous databases. The concept 23 web page is here: http://www.dnaftb.org/23/ After reading the Concept page, answer the following questions. What was the Mendel’s definition of a gene? How was it different from the definition by Beadle and Tatum? Describe proteins based on the early sequencing efforts. What was the definition of a protein coding gene based on the genetic code? What are the beginning and ending codons of the gene’s protein coding sequence? What is the name of the method that makes use of a “defective” DNA nucleotide? After reviewing the Animation pages, answer the following…
A gene affecting the behavioral outlook of individuals was discovered in several humans who can overcome anxiety caused by life's problems. Part of the gene that į translated into protein has a sequence 3'-GGATCCCGAATGTAATGCGTGCTC AATGGTAGTACGGC-5'. 1. What is the complementary strand of the DNA? 2. What is the sequence of the MRNA product after translation? 3. What is the sequence of the peptide encoded by the portion of the gene? (Use one letter symbol of amino acids)
Beadle and Tatum's experiments led to the "one gene - one enzyme (protein)" hypothesis. In subsequent years, many exceptions to this hypothesis were noted. A molecule of hemoglobin fails to support this hypothesis for which of the following reasons? n eukaryotes, one gene can code form multiple isoforms of a polypeptide. The functional hemoglobin protein is made from multiple polypeptides. Not all enzymes are proteins. Not all genes encode proteins.
Human Genome ProjectIn 2003, the Human Genome Project was successfully completed, determining the exact sequence of the entire human genome, which is made up of 3 billion nucleotide base pairs. The data generated from the Human Genome Project is freely available online to anyone. Many researches and innovations stemmed from the HGP, allowing the identifications of 1 800 disease genes. Many of the corporations using the results from the HGP are privately funded, and research is being done for profit even though the HGP results are provided freely.Identify one advantage and one disadvantage of corporate funding and patenting genetic research results.
Which of the following best describes the central dogma of molecular biology? A) mRNA is transcribed into DNA, which is then translated into a protein B) DNA is transcribed into mRNA, which is then translated into a protien C) DNA is translated into mRNA, which is then transcribed into a protein D) DNA is replicated into mRNA, Which is then transcribed into a protein E) mRNA is translated into DNA, which is then translated into a protein
