Transcribed Image Text:Which of the following statements is false?
a mutation in a 5' or 3' splice site must alter the sequence of the protein encoded by a gene
a mutation in a transcriptional terminator is unlikely to alter the sequence of a protein encoded by a gene.
a mutation in a promoter is unlikely to alter the sequence of the polypeptide encoded by a gene

Step 1
When genes occasionally undergo "mutations", which alter the instructions for forming the protein, causing the protein to malfunction. Such conditions are referred to as "genetic diseases."

Two antibodies were used, Antibody A binds to a muscle membrane protein that is unrelated to Fibrillin. Antibody B binds to the N terminus of Fibrillin 1, whilst Antibody C binds to the C terminus of Fibrillin 1. What is the best explanation for the staining pattern see in the following figure Antibody B Antibody A Antibody Carrow_forwardMRNAs and eukaryotic cells receive different modifications than those in prokaryotic cells, because eukaryotic mRNAs must be able to accomplish different things. Which of the following describes events that are necessary for an mRNA to be expressed in a eukaryotic cell, but are not necessary for mRNAs in a prokaryotic cell? select all that apply A) introns must be removed from the eukaryotic mRNA B) The mRNA must leave from the nucleus C) transcription factors must bind to the mRNA in a eukaryotic cell after it is transcribed D) A ribsome must bind to the mRNA .arrow_forward
- How would the removal of the TATA box in a eukaryotic gene impact transcription? Group of answer choices The gene would not be transcribed Transcription would occur more slowly Transcription would occur in the wrong direction Transcription would be less processive The wrong strand would be used as a template for synthesisarrow_forwardWhich of the following changes may cause a gene product to not loose functión?
