Step 1
Site-specific recombination moves nucleotide sequences are called mobile genetic elements and they are present between nonhomologous sites within a genome.
It produces genetic variants upon which evolution depends.

Given that the entire chromosome is 48,502 base pairs (as it says), figure out the fragment sizes you will expect if you cut it with EcoR1, or with HindIII, or with BseEII.

- draw a Conjugation diagramarrow_forwardUsing a laser beam, you isolated several R bands from human chromosomes. Answer the following questions What kinds of genes are present in R bands? Which isochors do you expect to be present in the R band? What class of interspersed repeats will be present in R bands? What class of tandem repeats do you expect to find in RG bands? Would you expect to find telomere sequences in some R bands?arrow_forwardWhy do human germ cells (cells that undergo meiosis to produce gametes) express the enzyme telomerase?arrow_forward
- You are studying a small eukaryotic gene of about 2000 bp in length. About how many copies of histone H4 would you expect to find along this region of the chromosome?arrow_forwardA pair of paralogous repeats, A and B, have 96% sequence similarity and therefore can promote non-allelic homologous recombination (NAHR). They exist in four possible arrangements in a genome, illustrated below as arrangements 1 – 4. What is the result of NAHR between repeats A and B in arrangement 1? A.Translocation between chromosomes 1 and 2 resulting in monocentric chromosomes B.Deletion or duplication of the region between A and B C.Translocation between chromosomes 1 and 2 resulting in acentric and dicentric chromosomes D.Inversion of the region between A and Barrow_forwardAnswer the following two questions. Ensure that your answer is separated into two parts, labelled A and B. a. Why is telomerase used by some eukaryotic cells but not prokaryotic cells? b. Clearly explain what the consequence is for a eukaryotic cell that lacks telomerase.arrow_forward
