Chapter 20, Problem 36P
Summary Introduction
To determine:
What is the effect on glomeruli as a person ages?
Introduction:
Kidney is an organ that aids in filtering the blood containing impurities and toxins. It is found in pairs in the human body and is similar to the shape of a bean. They occupy the abdominal cavity and are connected to the renal artery to receive the blood. It is the most important organ in urinary system as without kidneys the removal of toxins and impurities from the blood will not be possible.

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.
