Describe the difference between a transcriptional fusion and a translational reporter gene fusion. What sequences should you include in each? What types of information can be garnered from their analyses? Please include annotated pictures of the reporter gene expression patterns.
RNA are extracted from liver cells and separated in agarose gel by electrophoresis side-by-side with a molecular weight marker. The separated RNA fragments are then transferred to an RNA-binding membrane. Next, this membrane is incubated with labelled probe specific for the gene X. This experiment determines: MOLECULAR BIOLOGY_basic how many copies of gene X there are in liver cells. if the gene X is translated in liver cells. if gene X has a point mutation in liver cells. the chromosomal location of gene X. the length of the transcript of gene X.
How do you think that transcription randomizes positions of nucleosomes and repression restores the ordering after transcription? How might you test to see if there was an exchange of histone subunits during transcription or if the nucleosome is truly transferred as a single unit? Would you expect the DNA band representing the distance from the restriction enzyme site to the hypersensitive site to be a single band or a smear? Defend your answer.

When Laybourne and Kadonaga studied the effects of histone proteins on eukaryotic transcription using an in vitro transcription assay explain why: a) they used two different DNA templates that contained different promoter structures. b) when they included both activator protein and histones, they always added the histone proteins before adding the activator to the transcription assay mixture.
