To analyze:
Determine the approach by which two-hybrid method facilitate the discovery of protein- protein interactions. Explain the reason for the false-positive results (where the proteins encoded by two clones interact in the two-hybrid system but do not interact in the organism in which they naturally exist) obtained sometimes. Also the reason for the occurrence of false – negative (where the two proteins interact in vivo but fail to interact in the two-hybrid system) results.
Introduction:
There are many high-throughput technologies developed for proteomic analyses, including techniques to study protein expression, modification, and protein-protein interactions. The study of protein- protein interactions show whether and how different proteins interact, and provide information on the functioning of biological systems by identifying sets of proteins that form complexes. Two hybrid methods are successfully applied to many model systems, providing information on their protein interaction networks.

- One experiment that showed the DNA carried genetic information was the "Transformation" experiment by Avery, McCarty, and MacLeod where they injected mice with non-pathogenetic bacteria that had been incubated in the remains of pathogenic bacteria. What did they find when they incubated non-pathogenic bacteria in just the protein from the pathogenic bacteria? In this case there was no transformation They found that the non-pathogenic bacteria were transformed into pathogenic bacteria In this case the mice were sickened but did not die They found that some of the protein could cause transformation but other proteins could notarrow_forwardA bacterial transformation is performed with a donor strain that is resistant to four drugs, A, B, C, and D, and a recipient strain that is sensitive to all four drugs. The resulting recipient cell population is divided and plated onmedia containing various combinations of the drugs. The following table shows the results.a. One of the genes is distant from the other three, which appear to be closely linked. Which is the distant gene? b. What is the likely order of the three closely linked genesarrow_forwardAll of the following are true about the design of the Beadle and Tatum experiment (one gene one polypeptide) EXCEPT: A. Used X-rays to generate auxotrophs B. Depended on the use of the bacteria, N. crassa C. Examined the way in which amino acid biosynthesis occurs D. Added nutrient intermediates to rescue lethal mutations included the study of conditional mutants E. Led to the one-gene-one polypeptide hypothesis.arrow_forward
- You are analyzing cells that express a fusion gene encoding a FLAG-tagged protein of interest. Upon amino acid sequence analysis, you find that the FLAG protein sequence aligns to the sequence at the end of the fusion protein sequence you have. Where is the tag sequence located? Group of answer choices At the 5’ end of the gene and the C-term of your protein of interest At the 5’ end of the gene and the N-term of your protein of interest At the 3’ end of the gene and the C-term of your protein of interest At the 3’ end of the gene and the N-term of your protein of interestarrow_forwardYou are analyzing cells that express a fusion gene encoding a FLAG-tagged protein of interest.

Describe Grifith’s experiment to show transformation? What did he prove from his experiment?arrow_forward
- Why is Sanger sequencing sometimes referred to as "dye-terminator" sequencing?arrow_forwardWhat are some possible research questions and practical applications that could be addressed by creating organisms with artificial chromosomes and synthetic genomes? What might be some potential safety, environmental, social, and ethical concerns about creating organisms with synthetic genomes?arrow_forwardMany aspects of gene function can be nicely explained with the one-gene-one-enzyme hypothesis, which states that a gene controls the production of an enzyme. Which of the following findings about gene expression, though, requires an expansion of this simple concept? Choose an answer below: Non-enzyme proteins are made from genes too. Some genes code for RNA molecules only. Enzymes composed of different polypeptides are coded for by more than one gene. a and c, but not b a, b, and carrow_forward
- using example what is a degenerate primer? with the aid of diagrams discuss how degenerate primers are used to introduce random mutations in a gene and list some advantages and disadvantages of generating modified protein by this method .arrow_forwardWhat is the central dogma of biology? Describe the molecular processes that accomplish the flow of genetic information as listed by the central dogma?arrow_forwardIn a genomic analysis looking for a specific disease gene,one candidate gene was found to have a single-base-pairsubstitution resulting in a nonsynonymous amino acidchange. What would you have to check before concluding that you had identified the disease-causing gene?arrow_forward
