Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Protein synthesis has been completed after assemble of amino acid sequences of protein (primary structure). Proteins are functionally active when they become folded (secondary and tertiary structures). In quaternary structure, protein can be associated with other chains of proteins or binds with other nonprotein molecules like vitamins or carbohydrates. Chaperones are proteins, some of them are called as stress or heat shock proteins. Ribosomes assemble newly synthesized proteins guided by chaperones. Chaperone regulates the folding of new protein in a proper shape to prevent from unnecessary association with other proteins.

A cell is homozygous for a LOF mutation in the histone acetyltransferase (HAT) gene. Which of the following is/are true?
a. Chromatin in the cell will be more condensed than usual, decreasing expression of genes that should be expressed.
b. This will lead to histones with more positive charges on their tails, increasing the interaction between histones and the DNA backbone.
c. This will lead to a decrease in DNA methylation and therefore cause an increase in gene expression.
d. Chromatin in the cell will be less condensed than usual, increasing expression of genes that should not be expressed.
Which of the following statements
concerning p53 is NOT correct?
O a. p53-dependent transcription of target genes leads
to cell cycle arrest or cell death (apoptosis).
O b.
O C.
Loss of p53 function results in loss of checkpoint
controls.
Loss of p53 function creates an environment that
is permissive for genome instability--that is, more
damaged cells with chromosome aberrations and
mutations survive and propagate.
d. p53 is a tumor suppressor protein which is largely
responsible for protecting cells from cancer-
causing DNA-damaging agents.

- The p53 gene was discovered in 1979, but it was not clear whether the gene functioned as an oncogene or a tumor-suppressor gene. Several years later, researchers showed that both p53 alleles are inactivated in some mouse cancers. This evidence suggests A. the p53 gene is an oncogene because inactivated alleles would produce mutated signal transduction proteins that would result in stimulating cell division. B. the p53 gene is an oncogene because the cell would overproduce transcription factors to compensate for the inactive alleles, resulting in increased cell division. C. the p53 gene is a tumor-suppressor gene because inactivated alleles indicate a loss of protein function which allowed the cancer to develop D. the p53 gene is a tumor-suppressor gene because the cell would produce too few transcription factors for gene activation, resulting in decreased cell division.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is true about NHEJ (Non-Homologous End Joining) repair? a.

- A cultured mouse cell line has a mutation in a gene encoding a ribosomal protein. The mutant protein impairs the fidelity of translation such that incorrect amino acids are incorporated at higher rates than normal during protein synthesis. It also slows the rate of mRNA translation and increases the duration of the cell cycle, i.e., the mutant cells grow and divide more slowly. Researchers noted that these cells express higher levels of chaperone proteins than normal cells.
