- When Ras is activated, cells will divide. A dominant-negative form of Ras clings too tightly to GDP. You introduce a dominant-negative form of Ras into cells that also have a normal version of Ras. Which of the following statements is TRUE? O a. The normal Ras in the cells you create will not be able to bind GDP because the ion dominant-negative Ras binds to GDP too tightly. O b. The cells you create will divide more frequently compared to normal cells in response to the extracellular signals that typically activate Ras. c. The cells you create will divide less frequently than normal cells in response to the extracellular signals that typically activate Ras. O d. The cells you create will run out of the GTP necessary to activate Ras. Clear my choicearrow_forwardRegarding noncoding RNA, which of the following statements is false? HOTAIR RNA works as a scaffold that binds specific protein regulators at its two ends. Many long noncoding RNAs work in epigenetic regulation of gene expression. Most regulatory long noncoding RNAs work as trans-acting regulators. HOTAIR RNA is produced by a gene in the HOXC homeobox gene cluster at 12q13 but can regulate multiple genes within the HOXD gene cluster on chromosome 2. Noncoding RNAs are mostly involved in translation processes.arrow_forwardAberrant signaling through the Ras-BRaf-MAPK signal transduction pathway drives many cancers. This makes the pathway an attractive drug target, and many small molecules have been developed that target either Ras, BRaf or MAPK. In malignant melanoma, one mutation in particular, where valine 600 of Braf is mutated to a glutamic acid (V600E), is found in the majority of cases. This mutation makes BRaf activation independent of upstream Ras activity. Would a small molecule that targets Ras be effective in a melanoma case driven by Braf V600E? Explain your answer.arrow_forward
- a. Would you expect a cell to continue or to stopdividing at a nonpermissive high temperature if itis a temperature-sensitive Ras mutant whose protein product is fixed in the GTP-bound form atnonpermissive temperature?b. What would you expect if you had a temperaturesensitive mutant in which the Ras protein staysin the GDP-bound form at high temperature?arrow_forwardIn tumor cells obtained from patients with Burkittlymphoma, a cancer of the immune system’s B cells,the myc gene often appears close to one of the breakpoints of a reciprocal translocation between chromosomes 8 and 14. In this translocated position, myc is expressed at a higher-than-normal level. Scientists hypothesize that Myc protein overexpression in B cellscontributes to lymphoma formation.a. Explain how transgenic mice produced using pronuclear injection could be used to test this hypothesis. (Assume that you previously cloned a generegulatory region that is active specifically in Bcells throughout the life of the mouse.)b. Suppose you wanted to overexpress Myc only inthe immune cells of mice, starting at one week ofage. To restrict Myc transcription spatially, youwill use same promoter described in part (a). Torestrict Myc transcription temporally, you will usea cre transgene whose expression is controlled byheat shock (hs-cre). Describe the mouse you wouldcreate to accomplish…arrow_forwardWhich of the following is true when considering the calcineuron-NFAT pathway? Choose all that are true. Calcineuron removes Pi from NFATC in the presence of Ca2+. Trisomy 21 alters the dosage of DYRK1A and calcineuron. The addition of Pi to NFATc results in an increase in gene expression. The removal of Pi from NFATC is inhibited by DSCR1.arrow_forward
- Explain pleasearrow_forwardWhile investigating the function of a specific growth factor receptor gene from humans, researchers found that two types of proteins are synthesized from this gene. A larger protein containing a membrane spanning domain recognizes growth factors at the cell surface, stimulating a specific downstream signaling pathway. In contrast, a related, smaller protein is secreted from the cell and binds available growth factor circulating in the blood, thus inhibiting the downstream signaling pathway. Speculate on how the cell synthesizes these disparate proteins.arrow_forwardThe transcription factor Pax6 is required continually during the life of a mouse (or a human) for the development of the retina. Homozygous Pax6 knockout mice die soon after birth because Pax6 protein is also required in essential organs, such as the pancreas. a) In order to study the role of Pax6 in eye development a researcher wants to generate a mouse that expresses Pax6 everywhere except in its eyes. Describe how you could construct such a mouse by floxing the gene. Is it possible to achieve the same end with a transgene? (Hint: think about using cDNA and RNAI) b) Suppose you want to create a mouse similar to that in part (a), but one where the eye cells from Pax6 function has been removed and now express a gene that specifies a green fluorescent protein (GFP). Marking the cells in this way will allow the investigators to see the shapes of the Pax6- eye cells more easily than if they did not express GFP. Diagram a Pax6 gene construct that would enable the researcher to do this…arrow_forward
- The PYK gene codes for the expression of pyruvate kinase, which is one of the enzymestargeted for anti-cancer drug design. You have identified an RNAi that targets the mRNAof PYK gene. To study the effect of the RNAi towards pyruvate kinase, the respected RNAiis expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The level of pyruvate kinase can be detectedwith a fluorescent antibody.(a). Predict the result that you will obtain in recombinant S. cerevisiae that expresses therespected RNAi.(b). Compare the result in Q3a(i) with the wild-type S. cerevisiae.arrow_forwardA -------| B-------> Violet A linear switch-regulation pathway of the type shown here controls flower color in a certain species. The wildtype color is violet, but mutants can be either white or purple. Gene products A and B act in the pathway at the positions and in the manner shown (A is inhibitory, B is intensifying). A and B are the products of genes A and B, respectively. What are the expected phenotypes of: (a) A loss-of-function mutation in A? (b) A gain-of-function mutation in A? (c) A loss-of-function mutation in B? (d) A gain-of-function mutation in B?arrow_forwardYou are working with a fly hair cell developmental system. This Notch/Delta-regulated system results in clusters of cells where the central one differentiates into a specialized hair cell. To better understand this system you have tagged the C-terminal cytoplasmic domain of Notch with GFP. You have done a forward genetic screen to look for mutants that have unusual phenotypes in this Notch system. The first one is a mutation in Notch itself. This mutant is in the ADAM10 cleavage site and blocks proteolysis. Draw the expected outcome for such a mutant: GFP localization and developmental outcome 24hr after differentiation. WT before differentiation WT 24 hours after differentiationarrow_forward
