Question
Chapter 18.4, Problem 2R
Summary Introduction
To review:
The use of microarray technology in analyzing the gene expression during the germination of pea seeds.
Introduction:
There are many technologies that are used for the analysis of gene expression. They may be time consuming. One efficient way of gene expression analysis is deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) microarray technology. It is also called gene chips. It makes the work simpler and provides result in lesser time.

- You are a developmental geneticist studying flowering time variation in Arabidopsis. You perform a mutagenesis screen to identify mutants in the photoperiod pathway. Given what you know about photoperiodism in Arabidopsis, what phenotype are you looking for and under what photoperiodic conditions would you perform the experiment? delayed flowering in long days delayed flowering in short days same flowering in short days early flowering in short days same flowering in long days early flowering in long daysarrow_forwardGiven these options, which best describes the Cre-Lox system A) can be applied to control the expression of any gene desired by researchers. B) can only be used to control expression of genes encoding fluorescent proteins. C) is interesting in theory, but cannot be applied practically in research D) Only allows us to create glowing mice for the pet industry.arrow_forwardAnother way to study the role of proteins (e.g., transcription factors) that function in development is to microinject the mRNA that encodes a protein, or the purified protein itself, into an oocyte or embryo, and then determine how this affects the subsequent development of the embryo, larva, and adult. For example, if Bicoid protein is injected into the posterior region of an oocyte, the resulting embryo will develop into a larva that has anterior structures at both ends. Based on your understanding of the function of each developmental gene, what would be the predicted phenotype if the following proteins or mRNAs were injected into normal oocytes? A. Nanos mRNA injected into the anterior end of an oocyte B. Antp protein injected into the posterior end of an embryo C. Toll mRNA injected into the dorsal side of an early embryoarrow_forward
- eve stripe 2 reporter A B Hunchback C D 6999 Kruppel E F D In the early Drosophila embryo, the even-skipped (eve) gene is expressed in a striped pattern. eve stripe #2 expression is controlled by a regulatory DNA sequence that includes binding sites for the regulatory proteins Hunchback and Kruppel. The boxed figure at left above shows the expression patterns, in the early embryo, of a reporter gene joined to the eve stripe 2 regulatory sequence, and of the Hunchback and Kruppel proteins. Which of the figures at right best predicts the expression pattern of the eve stripe2 reporter (blue) in a mutant embryo lacking the Kruppel protein? The dashed lines in each outline the eve stripe 2 position in a wild-type embryo.arrow_forwardConsider the microarray in Figure 20.12. If a sample from normal tissue is labeled with a green fluorescent dye and a sample from cancerous tissue is labeled red, what color spots would represent genes you would be interested in if you were studying cancer? Explain.arrow_forwardConcept test: Please discuss thoroughly. The easily observed external structures in insects, such as different pairs of legs, antennae, and wings form from imaginal discs. a.) How is the identity of the different Drosophila imaginal discs established in the embryo—for example, how is it determined whether a disc will form a wing, a leg, or some other structure? b.) Dominant mutants in the gene Antennapedia result in fore legs forming in the location where antennae are expected. How does this mutant phenotype illustrate your response to Part a?arrow_forward
