Summary Introduction
Introduction:
In the upper and lower limbs, the total number of bones is thirty. The upper limbs differ in shape and size when matched with the lower limbs. The locomotion is possible by the presence of legs. While lifting, holding, writing, and some other manual processes are possible by the presence of hands.

Molecular Biology Question
You are working to characterize a novel protein in mice. Analysis shows that high levels of the primary transcript that codes for this protein are found in tissue from the brain, muscle, liver, and pancreas. However, an antibody that recognizes the C-terminal portion of the protein indicates that the protein is present in brain, muscle, and liver, but not in the pancreas. What is the most likely explanation for this result?
Molecular Biology
Explain/discuss how “slow stop” and “quick/fast stop” mutants wereused to identify different protein involved in DNA replication in E. coli.
