Question
Chapter 11.2, Problem 2I
Summary Introduction
To describe: If there will be an action potential that will be generated if the resting membrane potential is at the threshold level of -60mV.
Introduction: The presynaptic cell releases the neurotransmitters that are able to depolarize the postsynaptic membrane; this is called excitatory postsynaptic potential (EPSP).

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.
