Prolactin is a protein hormone that, among other things, enables mammals to produced milk. Prolactin is secreted from cells in the pituitary gland in response to eating, mating, ovulation, and nursing. a. Prolactin is encoded by the PRL A segment of the PRL gene and its regulatory regions are shown below. The +1 site (*) and part of the promoter (#) of PRL are indicated. What is the PRL mRNA transcribed from the PRL gene? 5'-AAGCCGACCGGATATACGACGCCATGAACATGACAGGATCGCCATGG-3' 3'-TTCGGCTGGCCTATATGCTGCGGTACTTGTACTGTCCTAGCGGTACC-5' b. What is the 5'-UTR of PRL?

Genomic studies

Genomic studies (genomics) is the study of the whole genome of an organism. Using bioinformatics and high-performance computing, genomic researchers examined massive amounts of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)-sequence data to discover variations or mutations that affect drug response, health, or disease. Genomics is a much younger discipline than genetics, having only emerged in the last few decades as a result of technological advancements in DNA sequencing and computational biology.
