nvestigate references dealing with the technical and ethical challenges surrounding mitochondrial replacement therapy (MRT). Consider the following questions: Differentiate between MRT methods: pronuclear transfer (PNT) versus maternal spindle transfer (MST). Much of the controversy surrounding MRT methods has been triggered by the phrase “three-parent babies” in media headlines. Do you think that this phrase is an accurate description of children born following mitochondrial replacement? Summarize the ethical arguments used to support and oppose the use of MRT in humans. In your opinion, which arguments have validity, and why

Please answer the following questions using numbers and not text. For example, if you think the answer is 24, write 24 and not twenty-four. If you think the answer is 24 ATP, write only the number 24. As a microbiology technician, your job is to characterize a novel bacterial strain isolated from insects. Phenotypically, you have discovered that the new bacterial strain can grow in the presence or absence of oxygen. After genome sequencing and biochemical characterization, you know that your new organism is capable of making all of the enzymes necessary for glycolysis and the TCA cycle, and that it has an electron transport chain. Answer the following questions based on the growth of your organism on minimal media plates containing only acetate as a carbon and energy source. Acetate is transported across the membrane at the cost of 3 ATP per molecule. Each question should be answered based on the metabolism of one molecule of acetate. If you come up with a negative value, indicate an…
There is a benign congenital condition called Hereditary Persistence of Fetal Hemoglobin (HPFH) in which production of the fetal hemoglobin (HbF) is not switched off post-partum (after birth). It is due to a mutation in the β-globin gene cluster. People that are homozygotes for this mutation, meaning that the gene from both parents is mutated, continue to make almost exclusively HbF throughout their life rather than adult hemoglobin (HbA). HPFH homozygotes demonstrate a slight erythrocytosis, or an increase in the number or mass of their red blood cells, and consequently an increase in the concentration of HbF. Given only what you know about the oxygen saturation dynamics of HbF versus HbA, can you explain why there might be the slight erythrocytosis in HPFH homozygotes? It has been observed that the prevalence of HPFH is much higher in populations with certain hemoglobinopathic disorders such as sickle cell anemia, and is selected for in populations with a high prevalence of these…
Answer each of the following questions correctly.(2-5 sentences only) A. How cloning and expression of certain genes allows for massive production of the desired product.(Give an specific example) For example: the cloning and expression of insulin in bacteria allows for the mass production of this necessary protein for use by diabetic patients. B. How PCR may be used for the detection of disease–causing pathogens in a population during COVID Pandemic. For example: It may be used to check if a patient has a COVID virus infection.

Provide a short answer for each of the questions below. For individuals homozygous for the Duffy gene mutation, which increases resistance to malaria, answer the following questions: 1)What impact do you expect the GATA → GACA mutation will have on the level of Duffy protein expression in red blood cells? 2)What impact do you expect the GATA → GACA mutation will have on the level of Duffy protein expression in endothelial and Purkinje (brain) cells? 3)Explain how this mutation leads to the level of Duffy expression you expect in the different cell types.

This is a blank question. Thank you in advance, Bloom Syndrome Bloom syndrome is a rare genetic disorder. It is characterized by short stature and a long narrow face with prominent nose and ears. There is also increased sensitivity to light. People who have the disorder often develop rashes on their face, forearms, and hands when they have been exposed to the sun. In addition, these people often suffer from chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD) and have a higher chance of developing cancer. The cause of this genetic disorder is a mutation in the BLM gene located on chromosome 15. The immediate effect of this mutation is that there is a defect in the functioning of the DNA helicase enzyme. What would be the effect of this mutation on DNA replication? What stage of the cell cycle would be most affected?
