What is the purpose of the random hexamer primers? Why can’t a researcher use a poly-T primer in a reverse transcriptase reaction that utilizes prokaryotic mRNA as a template?
You obtained the sequence of the frog gene X you amplified in Question #16 through a process called automated sequencing. In automated sequencing, you are given a printout of the sense strand of your DNA. The first thing you need to do is use the correct reading frame. Having done this, the next thing to do is to write out the mRNA sequence using this sense strand reading frame. The last thing to do is to translate the sequence. a.The reading frame DNA sequence is: b.The mRNA sequence is: c.The polypeptide sequence is: A disease in frogs which causes their tongue to fall out of their mouths is killing the frog population in LA County. You obtain a dead frog and isolate its gene Xf. When you sequence this mutated gene, you find that the last ‘G’ at the end of the first line of this sequence has been deleted (i.e. the G at position 86). In order to determine how this mutation changes the resulting polypeptide, write the mutated polypeptide sequence in the space below. What kind of…

. You are interested in a eukaryotic protein involved in immunity, and you are attempting to express this protein in E. coli in order to produce large amounts of the protein. You have identified the gene and place a copy of the gene on a plasmid in E. coli next to a bacterial promoter sequence. You determine that lots of mRNA is made from your gene in your E. coli system, but the protein produced is larger and doesn't have the same properties as the eukaryotic protein you expected. What mistake have you made and how can you fix it?
