Chapter 10, Problem 1.1Q
Summary Introduction

To determine: The effects on growth of a homozygous knockout of enzyme 3 in the  amino acid biosynthetic pathway [A-B-C-D- amino acid] which were catalysed by Enzymes 1,2,3 and 4 respectively.

Introduction: The gene knockout is now a day becomes very important key point to study the gene impacts and its importance in the genetics.

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

The below amino acid pathway is, in which at every step an enzyme is consumed to produce the next one:

A1B2C3D4Amino Acid

Since the above-mentioned pathway shows homozygous knocked out of enzyme 3, which supports One Gene One Enzyme hypotheses, in that case, the pathway stops after C, as there is no enzyme present which converts the C to D in the above pathway.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The means by which the points by these impacts be redressed.

Introduction: In heterozygous knockout one gene from the allele is knocked out while in homozygous both the genes from the same allele are knocked out.

Expert Solution
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

The below pathway is supported by one gene-one enzyme hypothesis. The enzyme 3 is absent after homozygous knocking out due to which the fourth step is not completed yet.

A1B2C3D4Amino Acid

Hence, knockouts of metabolic pathways are acquired as single genes, suggesting that one gene encodes one polypeptide. An organism can survive the homozygous knockout of the gene for an enzyme in a critical metabolic pathway if it is supplied with the metabolites required in later stages of the pathway.

10. Your instructor will give you 2 amino acids during the activity session (video 2-7. A. First color all the polar and non-polar covalent bonds in the R groups of your 2 amino acids using the same colors as in #7. Do not color the bonds in the backbone of each amino acid. B. Next, color where all the hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic interactions and ionic bonds could occur in the R group of each amino acid. Use the same colors as in #7. Do not color the bonds in the backbone of each amino acid. C. Position the two amino acids on the page below in an orientation where the two R groups could bond together. Once you are satisfied, staple or tape the amino acids in place and label the bond that you formed between the two R groups. - Polar covalent Bond - Red - Non polar Covalent boND- yellow - Ionic BonD - PINK Hydrogen Bonn - Purple Hydrophobic interaction-green O=C-N H I.

Find the dental formula and enter it in the following format: I3/3 C1/1 P4/4 M2/3 = 42 (this is not the correct number, just the correct format) Please be aware: the upper jaw is intact (all teeth are present). The bottom jaw/mandible is not intact. The front teeth should include 6 total rectangular teeth (3 on each side) and 2 total large triangular teeth (1 on each side).
