Summary Introduction

To determine:

The flow of blood from the venae cavae of the heart to the aorta.

Introduction:

Most of the vertebrates have two types of circulation, including pulmonary and systemic circulation in blood vessels. Pulmonary circulation circulates the deoxygenated blood to the lungs to make it oxygenated and then it passes the blood to the heart. Systemic circulation circulates the oxygenated blood from the heart to the other body tissues and then revert the deoxygenated blood back to the heart.

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.
