During the search for the Cystic Fibrosis (CF) gene the investigators used various criteria to conclude that they had arrived at a segment that
represented a gene. Which of the properties below was among the criteria used by the investigators?
O A. the presence of sequence palindromes
O B. gene-specific restriction maps
O C. interspecies sequence conservation
O D. polyadenylation signals
O E. the presence of AT-rich islands
QUESTION 23
A feature common to activation of the myc oncogene by both the Avian Leukosis virus and the chromosomal 8:14 translocation is:
O A. loss of the 1st myc exon (E1); initiation of transcription from a start site within the myc intron
O B. Initiation of transcription from a strong promoter upstream from the first myc exon (E1)
O C.A fusion transcript between an active upstream gene and the three myc exons
O D.A DNA deletion that eliminates the transcriptional termination signal from an active upstream gene.
O E. Recombination between the myc proto-oncogene and an active upstream gene.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fc3e671be-5699-41c7-ad14-09ef8165fba8%2Fe49b2884-0fb0-4e6d-8768-4ca2963d497c%2Fs5gxitg_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
