Chapter 15, Problem 12P
Summary Introduction
To review:
The pathway of blood through heart.
Introduction:
Heart is a muscular organ formed of cardiac muscles. It is responsible for the pumping of oxygenated blood into the body. It collects deoxygenated blood from body and pumps it to the lungs for purification. It has four chambers. The right atrium and right ventricle carries deoxygenated blood, while left atrium and left ventricle carries oxygenated blood from lungs and pumps into aorta from which blood flows into the whole body.
Pictorial representation:
The following diagram represents flow of blood through heart.

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?
