Can you please answer question 38
I read that vinyl chloride exposure is associated with an increased risk of a rare form of liver cancer (hepatic angiosarcoma), as well as brain and lung cancers, lymphoma, and leukemia. But my question is what gene(s) are being mutated by this type of taxic gas?
Each of the following statements concerning penicillin is correct EXCEPT:
a. Penicillin is a bacteriostatic drug because autolytic enzymes are not activated.
b. Penicillin inhibits transpeptidases, which are required for cross-linking peptidoglycan.
C. The structure of penicillin resembles that of a dipeptide of alanine, which is a component of peptidoglycan.
D. An intact β-lactam ring of penicillin is required for its activity.

- What defect in the cell causes the condition known as Zellweger's syndrome, ZS? Explain in detail and what is known about the genetics. What do the peroxisomes of ZS patients look like?arrow_forwardAs we focused on the translation of mRNA into proteins as well as on protein structure and function. Along the way, we found many opportunities to consider the methods and reasoning by which much of this informationwas acquired. From the explanations given in the chapter,what answers would you propose to the following fundamentalquestion How do we know, based on studies of Neurospora nutritionalmutations, that one gene specifies one enzyme?arrow_forwardProcedure This activity will use the Human β-hemoglobin gene, which is mutated in sickle cell anemia, with the following sequences of the first thirty (30) nucleotides: TAC CAC GTG GAC TGA GGA CAC CTC TTC AGA... 1. First transcribe the DNA sequence into the mRNA sequence. 2. Refer to the genetic code to write down the amino acid sequence that these 30 nucleotides encode beginning with the first nucleotide. 3. Generate a random number (1-30) by drawing lots in a bowl. Then locate the DNA nucleotide to "mutate" using the number drawn as the position along the gene. 4. "Roll" the tetrahedron "mutator" dice (see direction below for making the tetrahedron "mutator" dice). Note the letter on the side that is flat on the table. That is the nucleotide that will replace the nucleotide in the DNA at the position decided in the previous step. 5. Write the mutant nucleotide sequence in the row for Mutation 1, then analyze mutation. a. If it is the same nucleotide, write same nucleotide…arrow_forward
- A gene contains the sequence CGCATACGGTAC that results in the amino acid sequence arg-ile-arg-tyr. A mutation in this gene removes the first G in the strand.What is true of this mutation's effect on the phenotype?1.It will affect the phenotype because although most of the protein will be identical, the first amino acid will be different.2.It will not affect the phenotype because the protein will be identical to the original protein.3.It will affect the phenotype because all the amino acids past this point will be different from the original protein.4.It will not affect the phenotype because only the first amino acid is different from the original protein.arrow_forwardMatch the following nucleobases (designated AD) with their names and answer questions about them.
