(a)
Interpretation:
It should be determined that whether the given base sequences are sticky or not sticky.
Concept Introduction:
A base is nitrogen containing heterocyclic compound which is found in DNA and RNA.
There are mainly four nitrogen bases found in DNA and they are,
- (1) Adenine
- (2) Guanine
- (3) Cytosine
- (4) Thymine
Short stretches of single stranded DNA are sticky (complementary) to each other. If both ends are cut with the same enzyme, the sticky ends will stick together by complementary base pairing, forming hydrogen bonds.
In DNA, Adenine always makes a double bond with thymine (

- Deficiencies of carnitine, carnitine acyltransferases, or carnitine/acylcarnitine translocase affect the metabolism of long-chain fatty acids. Many of the symptoms are similar, and include hypoketotic hypoglycemia, low ketone levels and low blood sugar with fasting, and damage to the liver, heart, or muscles due to fatty acid buildup in those tissues. Symptom severity varies with the form of the deficiency. The following abbreviations are used: carnitine acyltransferase (carnitine palmitoyltransferase), CPT and carnitine/acylcarnitine translocase, CACT. Identify each symptom or effect as a deficiency of CPT I, CPT II, or CACT. CPT I deficiency CPT II deficiency CACT deficiency Answer Bank acyl carnitine not transported into mitochondrial matrix acyl carnitine not converted to carnitine in matrix long-chain fatty acids not transferred to carnitinearrow_forwardDiabetes is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by abnormal regulation of blood glucose levels. If left untreated, diabetes leads to chronic hyperglycemia and numerous pathological complications.
