Chapter 23.4, Problem 1CS
Summary Introduction
To determine: The three different genetic changes that one would expect to be neutral with reference to the genetic code described in table 12.1 given in the text book.
Introduction: The genetic code can be defined as a particular set of rules that is used by the living organisms for translating the given information encoded within the sequences of genetic material into the functional proteins.

- U Introduction to Bioinformatics Midterm AA 18- Protein sequences can be more informative than DNA sequences. Which of the following is NOT one of the reasons? a) Most of the changes in a DNA sequence do not change the amino acid that is specified. b) Protein sequences can provide information on SNPs and differences between individuals that are not translated. sequences. uskudar-sinav-Ims.almscloud.net c) Many amino acids share related biophysical properties and these relationships in an alignment can be used for scoring systems. d) There are 20 characters (amino acids) in a protein sequence whereas DNA has 4 characters (nucleotide bases). e) Protein sequences offer a longer look-back time than DNA Leave blank Closearrow_forwardExpand PCR? Describe the different Steps involved in this technique?arrow_forwardNeed help 1) Say you have an organism with a genome of 1 thousand bases (103) and a forward primer made up of 5 nucleotides (aka, a 5-mer) a)How many possible 5-mers are there? Remember that each position in the 5-mer has one of four nucleotides. b) Pick a 5-nucleotide position at random in the genome: what’s the probability that your forward primer matches there? Focus for now just on one strand of DNA. c) Pick a random 5-nucleotide position in the genome: what’s the probability that your forward primer does NOT match there? Focus for now just on one strand of DNA. d) How many physical locations might your forward primer sit in the genome? Focus just on one strand of DNA. Ignore whether or not it matches at a given location. this is one question with different parts. I would really appreciate it if all parts are answered. and I will defiantly rate.arrow_forward
