Question
Chapter 19, Problem 18CP
Summary Introduction
To review:
The definition and process of hemostasis.
Introduction:
Hemostasis can be defined as the sequence of the responses, which stops the bleeding in a person. The hemostatic response of a healthy person should be quick in the cases of ruptures or damaged blood vessels. This response is localized to the damaged portion, which is carefully controlled to be the most effective process.

- 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?arrow_forwardMolecular Biology Explain/discuss how “slow stop” and “quick/fast stop” mutants wereused to identify different protein involved in DNA replication in E. coli.arrow_forwardMolecular Biology Question A gene that codes for a protein was removed from a eukaryotic cell and inserted into a prokaryotic cell.
