You have a patient in your clinic presenting symptoms of cystic fibrosis. You screen their CFTR gene for mutations, and find the following list: CFTR 320 L V CFTR 341 S W CFTR 528 E D CFTR 976 F Q CFTR 1235 S R Which mutation(s) are likely causing cystic fibrosis in this patient? You also sequence a newborn family member of this patient. They have all of these same mutations, other than the one at position 976, and no other mutations in CFTR. Do you predict this person will develop cystic fibrosis? Explain why.

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.

You have the following DNA coding sequence of a wild-type allele: 5’-ATG TTC CAG CTA GAT GAT ATG CTG GTA ATT GGG GAA CGC GCG CGG TAA-3’ For each of the following mutations: A. State whether the mutation is missense, nonsense, frameshift, or silent. B. Write the codon change that occurs for the missense, nonsense, and silent mutations (ex. GAA -- GAT). C. For frameshift mutations, write out the entire mutant sequence with each codon clearly indicated (if the frameshift creates a new stop codon, end the sequence at the new stop). Using the wild type DNA sequence above as a guide : Write the amino acid sequence of the mutants. Mutant 1: transition at nucleotide 23 Mutant 2: T --> G transversion at nucleotide 29 Mutant 3: an insertion of “A” after nucleotide 14 Mutant 4: transition at nucleotide 7 Mutant 5: An insertion of GG after nucleotide 40 Mutant 6: transition at nucleotide 15 Mutant 7: a deletion of nucleotide 25
Analyzing Cloned Sequences A base change (A to T) is the mutational event that created the mutant sickle cell anemia allele of beta globin. This mutation destroys an MstII restriction site normally present in the beta globin gene. This difference between the normal allele and the mutant allele can be detected with Southern blotting. Using a labeled beta globin gene as a probe, what differences would you expect to see for a Southern blot of the normal beta globin gene and the mutant sickle cell gene?
this is what i have said about this image so far, what else can be said aswell including the raw count column. " Interpreting the results of an RNA-Seq analysis is pivotal in understanding the underlying genetic mechanisms of diseases such as breast cancer. In this analysis, Figure 1 provides comprehensive data on differentially expressed genes associated with breast cancer. By delving into the provided information, we can gain valuable insights into the molecular landscape of this disease. First focus is on the gene with the highest fold change, EYA4, situated on chromosome 6. With a staggering fold change of 3604.4176, EYA4 exhibits an unprecedented level of overexpression in cancerous cells compared to normal cells. This profound alteration suggests a pivotal role for EYA4 in breast cancer pathogenesis. The log2 fold change of 11.81555 further emphasizes the magnitude of this difference in gene expression. Statistical significance is evident, with an exceptionally low p-value of…
A research group is studying a bacterium X that binds to mucosal cells in the lung and invades. Wildtype X has an LD50 value of 10 bacteria when administered to mice by inhalation. Using transposon mutagenesis, the researchers have isolated two mutants of X that they call Xmut1 and Xmut2, both of which have LD50 values of 105 when inhaled by mice. However, in tissue culture cells, Xmut1 can invade the cells just as well as wild-type X, while Xmut2 cannot. Provide a possible explanation for these results.
