Question
Chapter 36.2, Problem 1CS
Summary Introduction
To determine: The way in which the animal body polarity is similar to the polarity of plants.
Introduction: Mouse chromosomes have Hox genes which are arranged based on the colinearity rule. These gens regulate the pattern of expression of morphological features from the anterior to the posterior end.

- Explain how you would compare the expression of a gene in a cancer cell and a normal cell using qPCR, a DNA chip, and RNA-seq analysis.arrow_forwardThink Critically. Provide a concise explanation of your answer. A mutation on an autosome causes a particular protein to be overproduced, and the excess protein accumulates in the liver and damages it. Would the resulting disorder most likely be inherited in an autosomal dominant or recessive pattern? Expression of the SYR gene on the Y chromosome gives rise to the male phenotype in humans. What do you think the inheritance pattern of SYR alleles is called? 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, also called DiGeorge syndrome, causes atypical parathyroid glands, a heart defect, and an underdeveloped thymus gland. About 85% of patients have a microdeletion of part of chromosome 22. A girl, her mother, and a maternal aunt have very mild DiGeorge syndrome. They all have a reciprocal translocation of chromosomes 22 and 2. How can a microdeletion and a translocation cause the same symptoms? Why were the people with the translocation less severely affected than the people with microdeletion? What other…arrow_forwardQ.Consider this problem: You are working in the lab to study the pattern of paralysis and candidate genes involved in this process. You revealed that homozygous mutation in the SLB gene is the main cause of paralysis. The following sequence of SLB gene at the beginning of the translated region is found in individuals without paralysis. 5‟-GTA GCA TTT AAG CTT CAG TCC AAG - 3‟ (Met Thr Phe Glu Ile Gln Ser Arg). This sequence is however changed to the following sequence in affected individuals 5‟- GTA GCA TTT AAG CTT TAG TCC AAG - 3‟ (Met Thr Phe Glu Ile STOP). What mutation you will identify from this observation? Explain with reason. After identifying mutation if there is any, enlist all the possible repair mechanisms that can be helpful to repair the current situation. Elaborate your answer with that why you think that your suggested repair pathway should be used and how it can be effective for repairing in the current scenario?arrow_forward

Discuss the onco-suppressive function of xenophagy + ( role of adaptors, compare and contrast evidence, opinion about the way forward for the field). Thank you!arrow_forwardTask #3 Impact of allelic difference: The receptor protein encoded by the recessive m allele sequence cannot bind its hormone partner, and as a result the fur pigment eumelanin is not effectively produced. Briefly explain how one amino acid change might impact the function of the receptor protein. Task # 4 Genotypes and Phenotypes: The Mc1r gene is located on chromosome #16 in mice. Mice are diploid so every somatic cell has two copies of the Mc1r gene. Since there are two Mc1r alleles there are three possible genotypes: MM, Mm and mm. M=dark pigment m=less pigmentParental generation: an inland mouse (MM) mates with a beach mouse (mm) A. What is the genotype of the F1 offspring? ________B. If this trait exhibits simple (Mendelian) dominance, circle the phenotype expected for the F1 fur color: dark pigment / medium pigment / less pigment Observed phenotype: F1 actually have medium pigment. Initially this looks like blending, but it is not. M and m are discrete units. This observation…arrow_forward

What do oscillations of these genes in the adult neural stem cell niche actually look like? How do these oscillations result in the progression from stem cell to neuron?arrow_forwardTask #1 Mc1r alleles: In Florida Gulf coast mice, there are two different alleles of the Melanocortin Receptor (Mcr1) gene. The sequence for both alleles is shown below. This is an internal segment of the coding (non-template) sequence of the Mcr1 gene. The reading frame is set and you do not need to find an AUG.
