Question
Chapter 28.5, Problem 3AYLO
Summary Introduction
To discuss:
Human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) its source and effects, the time course of its rising and falling secretion during pregnancy, and its usefulness in pregnancy tests.
Introduction:
The hormones that play a major role in pregnancy are progesterone, estrogens, HCG, and human chorionic somatomammotropin (HCS). Over the period of gestation, these hormone levels serve as an indicator for good health of the fetus. These hormones are released by the placenta; however, corpus luteum is the source of secretion during the initial weeks.

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.
