Question
Chapter 1, Problem 34P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The number of possible different cell types if each cell expresses 10 sets of the genes should be calculated.
Concept introduction:
The study of epigenetic variation or modifications in a set of genomes is termed as the epigenomics. Epigenetic modifications do not alter the DNA sequence but affects the gene expressions. Moreover, it is reversible modification in the cell’s DNA or histone sequence.

I am more confused. how about we start from begining, you post answers on here, and then we go from there?
1. Identify the open reading frame in the following DNA sequence, the protein that this gene encodes for, its function, and the source.
2. "Look carefully at the DNA sequence and identify the start site for transcription"
3.
Click on the DNA sequence from the start site of transcription, select all of the sequence, and copy the sequence.
Go to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) website http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/. Click on BLAST on the right-hand side under “Popular Resources.” BLAST is a program that will allow you to find the protein sequence for the DNA sequence (gene) you submit. Next click on blastx (translated nucleotide protein).
Paste the DNA sequence into the box under “Entry Query Sequence.” Scroll down and click BLAST. The search may take a few seconds; the page will keep updating until the search is completed. You do not need to enter any…

- Part I. Structure-Function Relationships in Genes 1. Consider the "two-line model" of a gene shown below - each line represents one strand of a DNA double helix, and the transcription start site is indicated as +1.

- can you please help me out with this ? Mutations in the IL2RG gene cause approximately 30 percent of severe combined immunodeficiency disorder (SCID) cases in humans. These mutations result in alterations to a protein component of cytokine receptors that are essential for proper development of the immune system. The IL2RG gene is composed of eight exons and contains upstream and downstream sequences that are necessary for proper transcription and translation. Below are some of the mutations observed. For each, explain its likely influence on the IL2RG gene product (assume its length to be 375 amino acids).

In the technique of DNase I footprinting, the binding of a protein to a region of DNA protects that region from digestion by DNase I by blocking the ability of DNase I to gain access to the DNA. In the DNase I footprinting experiment shown here, a researcher began with a sample of cloned DNA 400 bp in length. This DNA contained a eukaryotic promoter for RNA polymerase II. The assembly of general transcription factors and RNA polymerase II at the core promoter is described in Chapter 12 (see Figure 12.14). For the sample loaded in lane 1, no proteins were added. For the sample loaded in lane 2, the 400-bp fragment was mixed with RNA polymerase II plus TFIID and TFIIB. 2 400 350 250 175 50 Which region of this 400-bp fragment of DNA is bound by RNA polymerase II and TFIID and TFIIB? || III ||| | ||||arrow_forward
