Haemochromatosis is a recessive disorder caused by mutations in the HFE gene. The disorder can be the result of nonfunctional HFE protein, or from very low levels (expression) of the HFE protein. Below is a northern blot gel showing the amount and size of HFE mRNA for a person who does not have haemochromatosis (WT). The mRNA was loaded at the top of the gel. WT A B C D Position the bands on the gel shown in each question as directed. Part 1 Tom has a mutation which changes the sequence of an enhancer region adjacent to the TATAA box for this gene. Position Tom's band in Lane A. WT A B n D
