Summary Introduction

To explain: Filtration, reabsorption, and secretion at each region of the nephron and collecting system and the function and structure of the renal corpuscle.

Introduction: The kidneys are the functional units of the urinary system. The kidneys contain nephrons, which are the fundamental units of the kidneys. The major functions of the kidneys are to remove toxic wastes from the body in the form of urine, regulate and control fluid balance of the body, and maintain electrolytes at the right levels.

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.
