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.
