A temperature-sensitive mutant allele of Ras causes the Ras protein to be fixed in the GDP-bound state at the nonpermissive temperature. What phenotype would you expect a cell homozygous for this mutation to have at the nonpermissive temperature? A.) It would stop dividing. B.) It would divide continuously. C.) It would divide normally.
A particular strain of λ (lambda) can lysogenize its E. coli host at 30°C, but not at 42°C. Could a temperature-sensitive mutation in the int (integrase) gene explain this phenotype? A. There is insufficient information to answer the question. B. No C. Yes
Why is it easier to manipulate embryonic stem cells to differentiate into various tissues than it is to manipulate a typical adult cell? a. As cells develop, signaling pathways can cause some genes to be turned off during development. b. Adult cells have different DNA content than do embryonic stem cells. c. Emybronic stem cells pose less of a threat for organ rejection as do an individual s own adult cells. d. It is no easier to manipulate emybronic stem cells to differentiate into various tissues than it is to manipulate a typical adult cell.
The p53 protein was discovered through its association with SV40 T antigen and assumed initially to be an oncoprotein. a. What is the current consensus as the function of p53 and what evidence caused this change in view? b. How does the effect of mutation in the p53 gene differ from the effect of mutation in the RB gene what is the molecular basis for this difference ?
What strategy does a genetically encoded calcium indicator look like to allow fluorescence imaging of only one cell type in an acute slice of the brain? A.The use of fluorescent protein expression inhibitors in other cells B.The injection of a recombinant virus causing the death of other cells C.The use of a promoter specific to these cells D.Activation of membrane receptors specific to these cells
A geneticist uses a generic engineering approach to mutate the TATA-building protein (TBP) of a murine cell line that ordinarily produces high amounts of the LNS protein. The mutation prevents the binging of the TBP to the TATA box. What would be the effect on the cell line that possesses the mutation, especially LNS protein levels?
Describe what process leads to gene conversion. What are the consequences of gene conversion for carriers of genetic diseases, such as BRCA mutations?
Consider two different genes that are highly expressed in the tissue of your spleen (but not expressed in any other tissue in your body). Which of the following describes something that these two different genes have in common? A) Both of these genes must have the same set of control element sequences associated with them. B) Both of these genes must be present in spleen cells, but absent from the cells in the rest of your body. C) Both of these genes must be located on the same chromosome. D) Both of these genes must be the same length. .
