Please Use the overview and other internet sources to answer the following. Part 1: Genetics - From Genes to Proteins, Mutations (Chapter 10) Overview: Genetic information in DNA is transcribed to RNA and then translated into the amino acid sequence of a Protein. A) Step 1 - Transcription: During the process of transcri
How is Klinefelter Syndrome Inherited? Klinefelter syndrome is a term used to describe men who are born with an extra X chromosome in the majority of their cells. The cells of a normal, healthy person contain two copies of each of 23 chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes per cell. Everyone has two sex chromosomes. Males ha
The student asked for help understanding how to take a DNA sequence, transcribe it to mRNA and then translate it to amino acids. Detailed information is given to explain the steps one needs to take in order to accomplish both tasks. The assignment posted also asked about mutations, so an explanation of mutations is also provided
There are four codons that code for Glycine. How may the choosing/selection of the more prevalent codon/codons used for Gly in algae growing in the Arctic differ from algea that grows in a hot spring?
Suppose you are working for a biotechnology company in the "New Plant Products" division. You wander into the greenhouse and come across a recently harvested bag of soybeans that are colored a neon blue. There are currently 5 soybean plants in the greenhouse, but the bag is not labeled as to which plant they were obtained from
Discuss how the structure of DNA allows it to serve as the basis for inheritance.I read several topics but i'm not understanding clearly.
Please see the attachment.
Mom Smith is heterozygous for an X-linked trait that can be recognized by a polymorphism when her DNA is cut with Hae III and probed with ExTend probe. The polymorphism is a 3.5kb band for normal and a 1.5kb band for disease. Please diagram what you predict the autoradiograph would look like for the above samples if th
BAC clones can also be ordered by restriction enzyme fingerprinting. A typical BAC may be around 200kb and EcoRI may cut on average roughly once every 4kb. Hence, a typical BAC EcoRI digest may contain 40-50 bands. The accuracy with which band sizes can be measured is very important for this type of mapping. It is likely bette
1. Imagine you have an ordered library of mouse genomic BAC clones (of roughly 200-250 kb each), named BAC-1, BAC-2 etc. ("1", "2" etc. in the table below). You also have a set of STS markers, named a, b, c, d etc. You are trying to order the clones by STS content mapping. The table below presents all of the BAC clones that i
You are trying to construct a plasmid to be transfected (introduced) into mouse tissue culture cells in order to find out whether a specific protein localizes to the nucleus or the cytoplasm. You have three purified plasmids as starting materials. The objective is to combine pieces of these plasmids to make one purified plasmid
You have a 4kb ampicillin-resistant plasmid with one BamHI site and a single HindIII site 1.5kb away from the BamHI site (shortest distance). you cut one microgram of the circular DNA (which we will assume has no nicks in it) with BamHI, and one microgram with HindIII. You heat-inactivate the enzymes (if you prefer you could

See the attached file. DNA screening Many corporations have started presenting at home DNA health screening. A person has a cheek swab that isolates DNA and it then evaluated for patterns investigative of disposition to disease, by of which a lot of these disorders are still yet to be curable. -What are a few disadvantag
Certain trees of the same species are known to occur with several different chromosome numbers, even though they have similar characteristics. You have karyotyped some of these trees and found large differences in somatic chromosome numbers: 14, 28, 56, and 70. What would be the general genetic Term(s) given to these chromosomal
