The mutation rate of the genome of SARS-COV2 is estimated to be between 0.8-2.38 x 10-3. Let's use the mutation rate of 0.0008 of a particular site converting allele A2 to A1 (careful with this one). Let's imagine that the initial allele frequencies are: A1 = 0.8 = p %D A2 = 0.2 = q What is the allele frequency of allele A1 in the next generation? Please use five decimal points (Using fewer decimals will result in no points for this question).

Suppose that you are studying the role of Protein B, which you believe plays a role in regulating PCD/Apoptosis in mice. You create two lines of mutant mice. One (bb) is homozygous for a loss-of-function allele of gene B. The other (Bb) is heterozygous, with one wild-type allele and one loss-of function allele. Initially you pay particular attention to two phenotypes of the resulting mice:(i) The morphology of their paws (see picture) (ii) The size of their brains & shape of their skulls. The bb mice have unusually large brains and unusual protrusions from their skulls. Based on these data, does it appear that Protein B, when present and active, favors or inhibits PCD/Apoptosis?Briefly explain your reasoning. The answer should address both the paw and brain/skull data.

Determine the gene order (which gene is in the middle?), as you were shown in exercises for Tutorial 6, showing all your work. Construct a genetic map for the three genes, including the map distances between them. Clearly indicate the logic you followed and show all your calculations. Include the full distance calculations for the two most distanced genes (do not just add the other 2 distances).
In a three-point linkage analysis, the RF (Recombinant Frequency) for three genes were determined as the following: genes A and B (RF=15%), genes B and C (RF=22%), genes A and C (RF=35%). Based on this analysis, which one of three genes is located in the middle? O gene B Ogene A O gene C O cannot be determined
Knock out mice that are mutant for a gene product X die. Variants of the X gene that were reintroduced through homologous recombination indicate that variant proteins that lack the C-terminal region of the protein cannot rescue the lethality (did not allow them to live), and always localized to the cytoplasm. Those that retained the C-terminal region rescued the lethality (conferred viability!) and were consistently localized within the nucleus. RNA-seq analysis of the mutant cells vs the wild-type cells indicated that the expression of many genes that are essential for neural function was reduced in the knock-out mutant cells. The N-terminal region of Protein X is 100% conserved between mouse and humans at both the amino acid and the nucleotide level. The predicted mouse mRNA sequence is shown below where the AUG corresponds to the translational start site (AUG). 5’-AUGUUUACAGAGGGGAAU... -3’ d) What motif could be present to direct this protein to its correct destination? e)…

11). This pedigree illustrates a family in which some members have a completely penetrant disease caused by a dominant mutation. This mutation is linked at a distance of 10 map units from a SNP marker with three different alleles (1, 2 and 3). The SNP alleles found in each family member are indicated below each pedigree symbol. It is not yet evident whether the very young individuals labeled A and B will develop the disease. a. What is the probability that individual A will develop the disease? b. What is the probability that individual B will develop the disease? 1,3 2,2 1,2 3,2 O 1,2 3,2 A B
