Propose a treatment strategy for LFS.arrow_forwardWhy is it adaptive for the structural genes for using lactose to be under the control of a single promoter (i.e., synthesize a polycistronic message rather than three monocistronic messages)? a. For efficient absorption and catabolism of lactose, structural genes send a single signal. This is why polycistronic message is favored more than the monocistronic message since the former involves transmission of numerous messages in initiation and termination. b. Polycistronic message is favored more than the monocistronic message. c. Polycistronic message is favored more than the monocistronic message since the former involves transmission of numerous messages in initiation and termination. d. For an efficient absorption and catabolism of lactose, structural genes send a single signal only. e. Polycistronic message is favored more than the monocistronic message since the former involves transmission of single message in initiation and termination.arrow_forwardWhat is meant by the differential activation of genes?

Explain how benzo(a) pyrene can cause loss of p53 function.arrow_forwardWhat are the function of inducer?arrow_forwardIn addition, when ARF is artificially expressed in normal cells, a rapid increase in p53 levels is observed. Studies have demonstrated that ARF, when expressed, is associated with Mdm2. When associated, the two proteins display a particular pattern of localization restricted to the nucleolus. Suggest a mechanism by which ARF leads to p53 build-up.arrow_forward
- What is the expanded form of CRP ?arrow_forwardTroponin is a complex composed of Troponin C (TnC), Troponin I (TnI), and Troponin T (TnT); the complex is found in skeletal and cardiac muscle, but not smooth muscle. Two "isoforms" of TnI and two "isoforms" of TnT are expressed in human skeletal muscle tissue. Q:The isoforms of TnI in the sentence above mean: A:One single TnI gene encodes two different TnI proteins as a result of alternative splicing of the TnI pre-mRNA. B:There are two different TnI genes, each produces a TnI protein.arrow_forwardThe phenotype of a heterozygous mouse (Aa) is agouti. The agouti banding pattern is due to altered expression of the agouti gene. Which of the following statement is false? a) Expression of the agouti gene inhibits the production of eumelanin. b) Evidence suggests that the agouti gene is only expressed in tissues associated with fur production. c) Epigenetic markers silence the agouti gene resulting in dark pigmentation at the tip and root of the hair. d) All of the abovearrow_forward
