Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Sex chromosomes or allosomes are different from autosomes in size and behavior. The allosomes determine the sex of an individual. The human female has XX pair of the chromosome, and a male has XY pair of the chromosome.

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.
