Suppose that a consensus sequence in the regulatory promotor of a eukaryotic gene that encodes an enzyme – let's call it finalexamase – was deleted. Which of the following effects would result from this deletion? (yes or no) 1. Finalexamase would have a different amino acid sequence. (yes or no)? 2. The mRNA for finalexamase would be abnormally short. (yes or no)? 3. Finalexamase would be missing some amino acids. (yes or no)? 4. The mRNA for finalexamase would be transcribed but not translated. (yes or no)? 5. The quantity of mRNA for finalexamase that is transcribed would be affected. (yes or no)?

When a eukaryotic gene is cut out of genomic DNA, geneticists have discovered that enabling the strands to hydrogen bond allows them to hybridize one of the gene's strands to the mRNA for that gene. How can you tell whether this gene undergoes alternative splicing by comparing the mRNAs that result?
When scientists cut a eukaryotic gene from genomic DNA, they discovered that enabling the strands to hydrogen bond allows them to hybridize one of the gene's strands to the gene's mRNA. How can you tell whether this gene undergoes alternative splicing by comparing the various mRNAs that result?
Here is a eukaryotic gene. The numbers given are base pairs of exon and intron. How long in bases will the pre mRNA transcript be? Explain briefly. What is the maximum number of amino acids that could make up the protein product from the final mRNA? Explain briefly.
When a region of DNA that contains the genetic information for a protein is isolated from a bacterial cell and inserted into a eukaryotic cell in a proper position between a promoter and a terminator, the resulting cell usually produces the correct protein. But when the experiment is done in the reverse direction (eukaryotic DNA into a bacterial cell), the correct protein is often not produced. Can you suggest an explanation?
A mutant strain of Salmonella bacteria carries a mutation of the rho protein that has fully activity at 37°C but is completely inactivated when the mutant strain is grown at 40°C. a)Speculate about the kind of differences you would expect to see if you compared a broad spectrum of mRNAs from the mutant strain grown at 37°C and the same spectrum of mRNAs from the strain when grown at 40°C. b)Are all the mRNAs affected by the rho protein mutation in the same way? Why or why not?
Suppose that a consensus sequence in the regulatory promoter of a eukaryotic gene that encodes enzyme A were deleted. Which of the following effects would result from this deletion? Explain your reasoning. Q.. The amount of mRNA transcribed would be affected
In eukaryotes there is not a consistent relationship between the length of the coding sequence of a gene and the length of the mature mRNA it encodes, even though one nucleotide in DNA = one nucleotide in pre-mRNA or primary transcript. Explain why this is so.
"The gene for Receptor Z contains an unknown number of untranslated first exons that are spliced to a common exon 2" - what does it mean if a "first exon" is "spliced to a common exon 2"? Does it mean that Exon 1 is attached to Exon 2, but Exon 1 is not part of the translated protein - similar to the below schematic? mRNA Option 1: [Exon 1a][Exon 2][Exon 3].... mRNA Option 2:[Exon1b][Exon2][Exon 3] mRNA Option 3: [Exon1c][Exon2][Exon 3]
Consider a single base insertion mutation between the 3rd and 4th codons in a natural gene that encodes a protein 100 amino acids long. Is it more likely that the protein produced by this mutant allele will be shorter or longer than 100 amino acids long?
Geneticists have found that when they cut out a eukaryotic gene from genomic DNA that they can hybridize one of the strands of that gene to the mRNA for that gene by allowing the strands to hydrogen bond. Why is it sometimes claimed that alternative splicing of exons from a single gene results in a set of proteins of related function?
As we described in class, in the early 1960's Francis Crick and colleagues set out to determine how many nucleotide bases make up a codon, before it was possible to sequence DNA and before Nirenberg and his colleagues solved the genetic code. To do this, they used a chemical mutagen that they knew made single nucleotide changes, used this mutagen to conduct a screen for mutations that disrupted a particular gene, and collected a number of different mutations in this gene. Briefly describe the logic they used to deduce that the codon length is 3 nucleotides long.
The following is the only intron sequence of a gene that will be excised during the maturation of the mRNA. But it is not spliced in some tissues, where alternative splicing pattern is seen. Will the amino acid of its protein product following this sequence change? Explain with an example. ATGATAGCCAGACTCGCA
