Consider the gal10D56 reporter gene. In 300 words or fewer, describe 1) the role of GAL7 in galactose metabolism and its importance for cell function 2) the mutation present in the gal10D56 reporter gene 3) the consequence of this mutation for GAL7 expression in wild type cells, 4) the mechanism by which certain mutations can suppress the effects of gal10D56, and 5) the specific purpose for using this reporter gene.

- . Mutants of Neurospora crassa that lack carbamoyl phosphate syn- thetase I (CPS I) require arginine in the medium in order to grow, whereas mutants that lack carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase II (CPS II) require a pyrimidine, such as uracil. A priori, one would expect the active CPS II in the arginine mutants to provide sufficient carbamoyl phosphate for arginine synthesis, and the active CPS I in the pyrimidine mutants to "feed" the pyrimidine pathway. Explain these observations.arrow_forwardGive typing answer with explanation and conclusion a) List three eukaryotic gene expression mechanisms that do not occur in prokaryotes.
