- protein. You create a mouse line with Cas9 under control of a brain-specific enhancer, while the short guide RNA complementary to the first exon of Gene Y is expressed in all tissues. You subsequently sequence Gene Y in both brain and liver tissue. What would expect in each tissue? You can assume that the CRISPRICas9 system will impact both copies of Gene Y in cells, and that the first exon of Gene Y is necessary for Gene Ys function. a.

- Transcriptional regulation You are interested in studying the transcriptional regulation of Glp1 promoter. This gene contains a binding site for two proteins A and B. Proteins A and B cannot bind to the DNA at the same time due to steric interference caused by a slight overlap in their binding sites. The binding sites of protein A and protein B can be seen in the figure below. Protein A binds to Site C and Protein B binds to site D. To assess whether either A or B have an influence on Glp1 expression, you create mutations in the DNA that selectively remove the non-overlapping sequences of binding site C or binding site D. You then examine Glp1 mRNA production within adult liver cells. You receive the following data. Experiment number Binding site C Binding site D Glp1 mRNA levels 1 + + high 2 + - high 3 - + none 4 - - none += binding site present, -= binding site absent What does this data tell us about which protein is…arrow_forwardI am more confused. how about we start from begining, you post answers on here, and then we go from there? 1. Identify the open reading frame in the following DNA sequence, the protein that this gene encodes for, its function, and the source. 2. "Look carefully at the DNA sequence and identify the start site for transcription" 3. Click on the DNA sequence from the start site of transcription, select all of the sequence, and copy the sequence. Go to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) website http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/. Click on BLAST on the right-hand side under “Popular Resources.” BLAST is a program that will allow you to find the protein sequence for the DNA sequence (gene) you submit. Next click on blastx (translated nucleotide protein). Paste the DNA sequence into the box under “Entry Query Sequence.” Scroll down and click BLAST.

- Please do all.arrow_forwardPlease answer. ASAP. Thank you!arrow_forwardLike the lac operon, the hexose operon is controlled by a separate regulatory protein under the control of its own promoter (see the schematic of the operon below). The hexose regulatory protein is sensitive to fatty acyl CoA levels. When all hexose fuel sources are depleted, the bacteria switch to lipid metabolism and fatty acyl CoA levels increase. This turns expression of the hexose operon off. +1 +1 Regulatory Gene Pregulator Poperon O Hexose Operon Genes regulator promoter operon promoterarrow_forward
- Match the term with its description. cAMP Allows lactose to enter the cell and product of the lacY gene A regulatory sequence between the promoter and the structural genes of the lac operon When glucose levels are high, intracellular levels of this molecule are low Binds to and inhibits the function of the lac repressor when lactose is presentarrow_forwardTrue or False? Eukaryotic genomes are organized into operons; each operon consists of a series of genes which code for enzymes involved in a metabolic pathway, under the transcriptional control of a single promoter sequence .arrow_forwardMolecular biology, please explain in detailarrow_forward
