Shown below is an R loop prepared for electron microscopy by annealing a purified eukaryotic messenger RNA with DNA from a genomic clone containing the full-length gene corresponding to the mRNA. (a) How many exons does the gene contain? How many introns? (b) Where in this structure would you expect to find a 5′,5′-internucleotide bond? Where would you expect to find a polyadenylic acid sequence?
Suppose your supervisor is working on a molecule “X” with UniProtKB accession number P18564. Being a team member in the project, you have been asked to provide the following information with high accuracy? I. Chromosome number: II. Protein size: III. Number of exons: IV. Stop codon: V. Size of the longest exon in nucleotides
You have sequenced the genome of the bacterium Salmonella typhimurium and find a protein that is 100 percent identical to a protein in the bacterium Escherichia coli. When you compare nucleotide sequences of the S. typhimurium and E. coli genes, you find that their nucleotide sequences are only 87 percent identical. How would you interpret the observations? Please make sure to select ALL correct answer options. Because genetic code is redundant, changes in the DNA nucleotide sequence can occur without change to its encoded protein. Due to the flexibility in the third positions of most codons, the DNA sequence can accumulate changes without affecting protein structure. Natural selection will eliminate many deleterious amino acid changes. This will reduce the rate of change in the amino acid sequence and lead to sequence conservation of the proteins. Protein sequences are expected to evolve and…
In reversible terminator sequencing, how would the sequencing process be affected if the 3′-end-blocking group of each nucleotide were replaced with the 3′-H present in the dideoxynucleotides used in Sanger sequencing?

Sanger sequencing originally used 4 lanes in gels. These lanes represented sequences of different lengths obtained by adding: All of the 4 dideoxynucleotides (ddATP; ddGTP; ddCTP; ddTTP), together with all of the 4 deoxynucleotides (dATP, dGTP, dCTP and dTTP), to all of the reaction vials All of the 4 dideoxynucleotides (ddATP; ddGTP; ddCTP; ddTTP) to the reaction vials; together with one of the 4 deoxynucleotides (dATP, dGTP, dCTP and dTTP), one for each lane, in each vial.

You are analyzing the region of DNA shown below to determine how many AATG repeats are present. To do so, you must amplify the entire region of AATG repeats. Design primers of 16 bases each so they anneal outside the region of interest.
