QUESTION 4 Suppose you have a length of DNA sequence that corresponds to a complete mRNA open reading frame (coding region) for a protein enzyme (i.e. the region from the translation start codon reading continuously through to the translation stop codon). Which of the following might be a way to help determine if the DNA is from human or E. coli? O A. Examine the translation start codon, it should be only be AUG (ATG) if the DNA is from E. coli. O B. Digest with a restriction enzyme, bacterial DNA should be cut but human DNA should not. O C. Compare the codon usage to E. coli and human codon usage tables. O D. Look for splice sites GT-AG, those should only be present if the DNA is from human. O E. Both B and D
Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
