Which parameters are important to include when designing a GWAS (genome-wide association study) to identify genes involved in Polycystic Kidney disease in individuals of Korean ancestry? Select all that apply. Group of answer choices a. Compare Korean individuals with the disease to unaffected Korean individuals b. Pursue SNPs only in exonic loci for further study c. Pursue SNPS only in genes related to kidney development for further study d. Set strong statistical thresholds to identify SNPs related to the disease state over the general variation observed in populations e. Compare Korean individuals with the disease to every available genome for a stronger statistical power.

4) The government of Iceland has built a database which contains genetic informaiton about individuals using SNP analysis and other methods, which can be used to help diagnose pre-disposition to genetic diseases and other conditions. What are some ethical issues that are raised by compiling such a database?
Answer the following MCQs: 1:This database is most likely to have data about gene expression. GenBank BLAST dbEST RefSeq PDB 2: Dot matris noise reduction: window size is 7 by 7 and mismatch is 2. What is the minimal number of matches in this window that allows us to place the dot? 2 3 1 5 4 3: Find the optimal global alignment of two DNA sequences _ACAAC and AC. Match = 2, mismatch =0, gap opening =-3, gap extention=-1. What is the total score of alignment? 2 -1 0 -3 1
Researchers in search of loci in the human genome that arelikely to contribute to the constellation of factors leading tohypertension have compared candidate loci in humans and rats[Stoll, M., et al. (2000). New Target Regions for Human Hypertensionvia Comparative Genomics. Genome Res. 10:473–482].Through this research, they identified 26 chromosomal regionsthat they consider likely to contain hypertension genes. Howcan comparative genomics aid in the identification of genesresponsible for such a complex human disease? The researchersstate that comparisons of rat and human candidate loci tothose in the mouse may help validate their studies. Why mightthis be so?

Evaluate the complexity of the technical issues related to managing and utilizing genomic data as discussed in chapter 24. Without discrimination as the framework, preventive medicine and wellness models may desire genetic testing in adults to identify genetic diseases before they cause symptoms. Outline the considerations for the shifts in health care delivery caused by personalized medicine including the management of personalized data.
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disorder affecting a number of organs, including the lung airways, pancreas, and sweat glands. Mutations in both copies of the CFTR gene causes cystic fibrosis. Imagine that you have sweat gland samples from several Cystic Fibrosis patients (A-C) with unknown mutations in CFTR. You also have normal (+) sweat gland sample to use as a positive control. А В С А В С Choose which mutation would explain the RNA and protein results in A, B, & C: 1. Promoter/Regulatory mutation 2. Silent mutation 3. Missense mutation 4. Deletion mutation 5. Splice site mutation 6. Nonsense mutation RNA gel Protein gel
1. Write if the statement is true and modify the statement with the correct answer if its false a. E. coli strains used in blue-white screening produce blue color complexes because their beta-galactosidases are activated via alpha-complementation. b. If you are a researcher trying to identify a gene that is responsible for a trait of interest, the first thing that you would do is to make a review of the literature that is available. c. The polylinker region in plasmids is where specific DNA sequences are cut by non-specific restriction enzymes. d. Blue-white screening is one of the last steps involved in determining if the gene of interest has been inserted successfully in plasmids.
