Question
TRUE OR FALSE?
a. Two other Benzer rll point mutants show a map distance of 0.05 mu. This is
such a small map distance that it provides adequate proof that the two mutants
are in the same rll gene. A complementation test is not necessary.. true or false?
b.Two other Benzer rll point mutants yield a map distance of 0.05 mu. However
close these mutations are to each other, it does not provide definitive proof they
are in the same rll gene. This requires a negative result in a complementation test
(in other words, "non-complementation).. true or false?
c. The historical importance of Benzer's rll experiments were findings that a gene
could be "broken apart" by intragenic recombination, and that the "smallest unit"
of recombination and mutation is the base pair. Two experiments: a mapping
experiment to show that two rll mutants show a map distance between them,
and a complementation test to prove that those two mutants are in the same
gene.. true or false?
d. Two important accessory proteins in in vivo DNA synthesis are topoisomerases
and DNA ligase. Topoisomerases induce single and double strand
strands to relieve tension formed by the unwinding of the double helix. These so
called DNA "nicks" in the sugar-phosphate backbone of each strand are then
closed and the sugar-phosphate linkages restored by DNA ligase.. true or false ?
