Chapter 10, Problem 10P

A researcher interested in studying a human gene on chromosome 21 and another gene on the X chromosome 21 and another gene on the X chromosome uses FISH probes to locate each gene. The chromosome 21 probe produces green fluorescent color, and the X chromosome probe produces red fluorescent color.

If the subject studied is female, how many green and red spots will be detected? Explain your answer.

If the subject studied is male, how many green and red spots will be detected? Explain your answer.

Give examples of convetional stains used for karyotyping and describe each briefly. Include which part(s) of the chromosomes these stains visualize. What is an ideogram? What is its significance? What are some of the medical applications of karyotyping?
Select the best process listed below for each of the following statements. Note that you need to know that the sequence of amino acids directly reflects the sequence of genes that coded for their placement. Homologous sets of genes ABCDEF and aBCdEF are located on - vnonhomologous chromosomes. Crossing over between them is suppressed because their locations are the result of this. Homologous sets of genes ABCDEF and AEDCBF are located on homologous chromosomes. A small region of a protein from three species is sequenced and found to be as follows: species X is alanine, glycine, glycine, threonine, alanine v species Y is alanine, glycine, threonine, alanine species Z is alanine, glycine, glycine, threonine, alanine The difference in the amino acid sequence of species Y is most likely due to this. a. Inversion b. Deletion A small region of a protein from three species is sequenced and found to be as follows: c. Gene duplication d. Translocation e. Insertion species X is alanine, glycine,…
In an electrophoretic gel across which is applied a powerful electrical alternating pulsed field, the DNA of the haploid fungus Neurospora crassa (n = 7) moves slowly but eventually forms seven bands, which represent DNA fractions that are of different sizes and hence have moved at different speeds. These bands are presumed to be the seven chromosomes. How would you show which band corresponds to which chromosome?
