Chapter 18.5, Problem 2MI
Summary Introduction
The microarray experiments produce a vast amount of information and it must be organized. One such approach is the use of hierarchical cluster analysis. This analysis groups the genes on the basis of its function and level of expression. The upregulated genes are indicated as red-colored spots and are grouped distinctly from the downregulated genes indicated as green colored spots. The unaltered gene expressions are indicated in black spots.

You are interested in finding out in which organ GTF2H5 is highly expressed experimentally. Describe a method in recombinant DNA technology to measure gene expression, explain your rationale, and step by step, what are needed for this method to work
The following table lists 4 bacterial strains that are partial diploids for lac operon genes. Given the
activity of beta-galactosidase measured for each strain in the absence (-lac) or presence (+lac) of
lactose, complete the table by choosing the appropriate symbol (+, -, C, S) to indicate the allele of
the gene or site missing from the table (blue numbers).

- How can you tell if a protein is stably expressed over time by looking at a pulse-chase analysis gel with bands?arrow_forwardYou have isolated different mutants (reg1 and reg2) causing constitutive expression of the emu operon (which has genes emu1 and emu2). One mutant contains a defect in a DNA-binding site, and the other has a loss-of-function defect in the gene encoding a protein that binds to the site Say you don’t know which mutant has a defect in the site and which one has a mutation in the binding protein. To figure it out, you construct the two partial diploid strains (i and ii below), and you then assay the levels of the Emu1 and Emu2 proteins in these two strains. F’ (reg1- reg2+ emu1- emu2+) / reg1+ reg2+ emu1+ emu2- F’ (reg1+ reg2- emu1- emu2+) / reg1+ reg2+ emu1+ emu2- What proteins do you predict will be expressed for strains i and ii if reg2 encodes the regulatory protein and reg1 is the regulatory site?arrow_forwardDetermine the experimental design that makes the difference between the given two modes of action at a specific gene possible.arrow_forward
