Chapter 29, Problem 7P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason for the increase in the ability of bZIP proteins in forming heterodimers the repertoire of genes the transcription of which is responsive to protein regulation should be determined.

Concept introduction:

DNA or Deoxyribonucleic acid is a molecule made of two chains which coil around one another. These form a double helix which carries instructions genetical in nature like related to reproduction, growth, development, functioning of the living organisms.

The process wherein enzymatically the DNA sequence is copied and complementary RNA is produced, catalyzed by RNA polymerase is referred to as Transcription.

Direct mutagenesis of Ca2+ ATPase gene resulted in the replacement of two amino acid residues - Asn111 and Asn114 to Ala. These substitutions led to the reduction in Ca2+ transport activity by 10% and 50%, respectively. On the other hand, directed mutagenesis that resulted in the alteration of four Glu residues in the lumenal loop of this transport protein to Ala, did not affect the Ca2+ transport. Provide the possible explanation for the observed differences in the Ca2+ transport activity between the protein with Asn->Ala substitution and the protein with Glu->Ala substitution.

Explain how the following mutations would affect transcription of the yeast GAL1 gene in the presence of galactose. (a) A deletion within the GAL4 gene that removes the region encoding amino acids 1 to 100. (b) A deletion of the entire GAL3 gene. (c) A mutation within the GAL80 gene that blocks the ability of Gal80 protein to interact with Gal3p. (d) A deletion of one of the four UASG elements upstream from the GAL1 gene. (e) A point mutation in the GAL1 core promoter that alters the sequence of the TATA box.
