. The double-stranded circular DNA molecule thatforms the genome of the SV40 tumor virus can be denatured into single-stranded DNA molecules. Becausethe base composition of the two strands differs, thestrands can be separated on the basis of their densityinto two strands designated W(atson) and C(rick). When each of the purified preparations of the single strands was mixed with mRNA from cells infectedwith the virus, hybrids were formed between the RNAand DNA. Closer analysis of these hybridizationsshowed that RNAs that hybridized with the W preparation were different from RNAs that hybridized withthe C preparation. What does this tell you about thetranscription templates for the different classes ofRNAs?
Does the Hershy-Chase experiment distinguish between DNA and RNA as the molecular
serving as the genetic material? Why or why not?

- Need help 1) Say you have an organism with a genome of 1 thousand bases (103) and a forward primer made up of 5 nucleotides (aka, a 5-mer) a)How many possible 5-mers are there? Remember that each position in the 5-mer has one of four nucleotides. b) Pick a 5-nucleotide position at random in the genome: what’s the probability that your forward primer matches there? Focus for now just on one strand of DNA. c) Pick a random 5-nucleotide position in the genome: what’s the probability that your forward primer does NOT match there? Focus for now just on one strand of DNA. d) How many physical locations might your forward primer sit in the genome? Focus just on one strand of DNA. Ignore whether or not it matches at a given location. this is one question with different parts. I would really appreciate it if all parts are answered. and I will defiantly rate.arrow_forwardHome Work: • Suppose you perform a PCR that begins with one double-strand of the following DNA template: +5' -СТАССТСCGGGTTGACTGСТАССТТССССGGATGCCCAAAAТТСТСGAG-3— :::::::::::: :::::::::::: :::: +3'-GATGGACССССААСТGACGATGGAAGGGCCCТАССGGTTTTAAGAGCTC-5'+ A.

- Please help witht this homework question A- What are the topological parameters (linking number, twist, and writhe)for a relaxed, 4,200 base pair circular double-stranded DNA plasmid? LK=? Tw= ? Wr=? The CRISPR-Cas9 protein first forms a protein-RNA complex with a guide RNA, and then binds to DNA sequences that match a 20-base target sequence within the guide. When the CRISPR-Cas9 complex binds to DNA, it unwinds about 20 base pairs of the DNA double helix. B- Why is DNA unwinding required for CRISPR-Cas9 protein-RNA complexto recognize target sites? C-How would the topological parameters (linking number, twist, andwrithe) of the 4,200 bp plasmid in (A) change when the CRISPR-Cas9 complex binds the DNA and unwinds about 20 bp? Lk=? Tw=? Wr=?
