- 1. A monogenic disease is a disease caused by a mutation in a single gene. For instance, sickle-cell anemia is caused by a mutation in the HBB gene, which codes for the B- globin chain of hemoglobin. The beginning of HBB is shown here: 5'-ATGGTGCACCTGACTCCTGAGGAGAAGTCTGCCGTTACT...-3' A. Translate this HBB sequence into an amino acid sequence. B. In terms of amino acids, what is the result of the sickle cell mutation, wherein the bolded red A is changed to a T? This single mutation causes hemoglobin to aggregate, causing red blood cells to deform into a sickle-like shape rather than the normal “biconcave disk" shape. C. What would happen if the bolded blue A were mutated to at T? (This is hypothetical; it's not a mutation found in sickle-cell disease.)1. Every time a human cell divides, over 50 new mutations can be found in the daughter cells 2. Mutations can accumulate over the course of successive cell divisions 3. In every new kid, over 50 new mutations can be found when comparing them to their parents 4. Most of the new mutations in gametes are probably silent*, but there's a good chance that one of them might occur in a gene, and alter that gene in such a way as to potentially create a mutation *Note: by 'silent' we mean that the mutation doesn't have the potential to alter phenotype, either because it is not in a gene, or is in a gene but in the middle of an intron, or is in the coding sequence but is a silent substitution, etc., etc. 5. Most new gene mutations (i.e. mutations that occur in genes that alter gene expression, splicing or protein sequence) are recessive1. What is Transcriptome? What is Transcriptome analysis? How does the method yield information able to elucidate the structural apexes of the molecules under examination? What are the steps and primary methods used in Transcriptome analysis?
