The abundance of three mRNA transcripts, transcripts A, B, and C, was measured by real-time PCR. The average CT values were 14.6, 20.2, and 10.5 for transcripts A, B, and C, respectively. Determine the relative order of abundance of the transcripts. Name one technique that could be used to confirm that the order of abundance at the mRNA transcript level is reflected at the protein level.
When the cDNA was sequenced by the Sanger method utilizing ddCTP, the following products were obtained: Tetranucleotide Hexanucleotide Nonanucleotide Decanucleotide Dodenucleotide Octadecanucleotide Nonadecanucleotide 21-nucleotide 6c. What is the sequence of the bases in the mRNA coding for the peptide above? The
Below is a sequence of 540 bases from a genome. What information would you use to find the beginnings and ends of open reading frames? How many open reading frames can you find in this sequence? Which open reading frame is likely to represent a protein- coding sequence, and why? Which are probably not functioning protein-coding sequences, and why? Note: for simplicitys sake, analyze only this one strand of the DNA double helix, reading from left to right, so you will only be analyzing three of the six reading frames shown in Figure 19.4.

You are studying a gene containing three exons (exon 1 = 66 nucleotides , exon 2 = 99 nucleotides , and exon 3 = 333 nucleotides ) that produces a primary RNA transcript 748 nucleotides long . Gel electrophoresis analysis shows different size mature transcripts are produced in three different cell types . The sizes of the mature transcripts are the following : 1. Neuronal nalcells = 498 nucleotides 2. Muscle cells = 600 nucleotides 3. Liver cells = 399nu nucleotides Primary RNA ranscript = 748 nucleotides a. Name the strategy that allows the same gene to produce different mature transcripts in different tissues . b. Describe the ways (or combinations of exons /introns ) used to produce each one ofthe three mature transcripts . Label the each mature transcripts and include its length . c. Indicate the length of the polypeptide encoded by each mature transcript
What could be a probable fate of the segment of the DNA strand encircled in red? Polypeptides can now be translated from the encircled region as the two antiparrallel strands separate. The encircled DNA region can now be used as a template for transcription. it will relax right away on its own so that helicase can separate the two complementary strands with much ease If the encircled region will not be relaxed by another enzyme, it will experience supercoiling and will most likely break.
