Summary Introduction

To review:

The order, in which various muscle fibers come into action when a person sprint for the bus stop.

Introduction:

The skeletal muscles have multiple bundles of cells that are referred as muscle fibers, which are found under the voluntary control of the somatic nervous system. The skeletal muscle fibers are of three different types including SO (slow oxidative) fibers, fast glycolytic fibers and FOG (fast oxidative-glycolytic) fibers.

The Sentinel Cell: Nature’s Answer to Cancer?
Molecular Biology Question You are working to characterize a novel protein in mice. Analysis shows that high levels of the primary transcript that codes for this protein are found in tissue from the brain, muscle, liver, and pancreas. However, an antibody that recognizes the C-terminal portion of the protein indicates that the protein is present in brain, muscle, and liver, but not in the pancreas. What is the most likely explanation for this result?
Molecular Biology Explain/discuss how “slow stop” and “quick/fast stop” mutants wereused to identify different protein involved in DNA replication in E. coli.
