Genetics of man question:Describe the molecular genetics analysis for the GATA binding protein gene and consider the possibility of lethality and functional
redundancy and experimental strategies to address possibilities.
Based on standard MS- LS3-1:
Fish in a cave system in Mexico is missing its eyes, has thin, translucent skin, and is relatively small (7-10 cm in length).
Can you describe by model why structural changes to genes (mutations) on chromosomes may affect proteins and may result in beneficial effects to the structure and function of the fish?
Can you answer in the following format?
1-
Structure
How Structure and Function is Affected by Mutations in Blind Fish
Eyes
Scales
Taste Cells
Lateral Line
2- Model to explain what causes these changes:
Change: ______________ Adapting an Organism to the Dark
Cause: ________________ Stop the Growth of Eyes
Effect: ___________________ Fish with Heightened Other Senses

- Genetics of man question:Provide the expression pattern of the gene ,GATA binding 3 (GATA3).arrow_forwardWhich statements are true? Explain why or why not.1 In terms of the way it interacts with DNA, thehelix–loop–helix motif is more closely related to the leu-cine zipper motif than it is to the helix–turn–helix motif.2 Once cells have differentiated to their final spe-cialized forms, they never again alter expression of theirgenes.3 CG islands are thought to have arisen during evo-lution because they were associated with portions of thegenome that remained unmethylated in the germ line.4 In most differentiated tissues, daughter cells retaina memory of gene expression patterns that were presentin the parent cell through mechanisms that do not involvechanges in the sequence of their genomic DNA.arrow_forwardAnswer asap.
