Chapter 10, Problem 14P

The figure that follows shows part of a modified screen shot of part of the human genome as displayed on the UCSC Genome Browser. A through G map the sequences within individual cDNA clones to the genome sequence. Refer to the key in Fig. 10.3 if you need help in interpreting this diagram. Pay close attention to the vertical widths of the icons indicating exons.

  1. How many annotated genes do you think are present in this region of the human genome?

  2. For all annotated genes in this region, indicate whether they are transcribed in the direction from centromere to telomere or from telomere to centromere.

  3. How many promoters are suggested by the data? Approximately where are these promoters located?

  4. How many different proteins are encoded by the DNA sequences in this region?

  5. What is unusual about this region of the human genome?

Most people, even those who exercise regularly at low to average intensity (1 hour at the gym or a 2- to 3-mile walk several times per week), do not need an increased protein intake. What would be the protein needs of a man named Josh who exercises moderately and is the same age and size as Wayne? Josh is 5 ft, 8 in tall and weighs 183 lb.   Round the number of grams to the nearest whole number. During calculations, use numbers rounded to the first decimal place. Because protein requirement is a range, please enter two numbers: lower and upper range values, respectively.   Separate the lower and upper range values, in that order, by a comma.   ___, ___ g ?

If left untreated, most HIV-infected individuals will develop AIDS. Current treatments are focused on highlyactive antiretroviral therapy (HAART). HAART usually consists of an orally delivered drug cocktail containingtwo different reverse transcriptase inhibitors and one other drug, such as a protease inhibitor. Question: Develop a pharmacokinetic model of HAART treatment. Consider all 3 drugs. Make sure to include adiagram that illustrates your thinking, state all assumptions, and define your variables. Whatparameters would you need to know to find the concentration of drug in the plasma? In the T cells?(You do not need to write out or solve any equations.)
