Mutations in the stem loop around the coat gene initiation codon that weakens the base-pairing in the stem loop. c. Mutations in the interior of the replicase gene that cause it to base-pair with the coat gene initiation codon.arrow_forwardWHAT IF?

Choose the best answer. 9) To get started on this project, you isolate and cut out the gene in a jellyfish that codes for the green fluorescent protein (GFP). The next thing you need to do is attach this gene to the correct promoter so that you can be sure it is expressed appropriately in the cat. Which of the following promoters should you use? a) any promoter is fine b) the original promoter found in the jellyfish c) a promoter from a gene that is expressed in cells of the cat's nose, ears, and tail 10) You are now ready to transfer the piece of recombinant DNA you have prepared to the cat. You want to be sure that the transgenic cat you create will be able to pass the fluorescence on to its offspring. What is the best type of cell to transfer the recombinant DNA to? a) an unfertilized egg b) a fertilized egg c) somatic cells of an adult catarrow_forward
