Let’s suppose a researcher was interested in the effects of mutationson the expression of a protein-encoding gene for a proteinthat is 472 amino acids in length. This protein is expressed in leafcells of Arabidopsis thaliana. It has a molecular mass of approximately56,640 Da. Make a drawing that shows the expected resultsof a Western blot using proteins isolated from the leaf cells thatwere obtained from the following plants:Lane 1. A plant homozygous for a nonmutant geneLane 2. A plant homozygous for a deletion that removes the promoterfor this geneLane 3. A heterozygous plant in which one gene is nonmutant andthe other gene has a mutation that introduces an early stop codon atcodon 112Lane 4. A plant homozygous for a mutation that introduces anearly stop codon at codon 112Lane 5. A plant homozygous for a mutation that changes codon108 from a phenylalanine codon into a leucine codon

- a. draw the relevant plant chromosomes in both plants b. explaint he two different ratiosarrow_forwardWhat would be the most likely effect of deleting flowering locus D (FLD) in Arabidopsis thaliana?arrow_forwardYou are a developmental geneticist studying flowering time variation in Arabidopsis. You perform a mutagenesis screen to identify mutants in the photoperiod pathway. You conduct the screen and find two different plants that show the same mutant phenotype. You then use a complementation test. What is the predicted outcome of this test if both phenotypes are caused by mutations in separate genes? recover the wild type phenotype overexpress the gene O recover the mutant phenotypearrow_forward
- . In a certain plant, the flower petals are normally purple.Two recessive mutations arise in separate plants and arefound to be on different chromosomes. Mutation 1 (m1)gives blue petals when homozygous (m1/m1). Mutation2 (m2) gives red petals when homozygous (m2/m2).Biochemists working on the synthesis of flower pigments in this species have already described the following pathway:colorless (white)compoundblue pigmentred pigmentenzyme Aenzyme Ba. Which mutant would you expect to be deficient inenzyme A activity?b. A plant has the genotype M1/m1 ; M2/m2. Whatwould you expect its phenotype to be?c. If the plant in part b is selfed, what colors of progenywould you expect and in what proportions?d. Why are these mutants recessive?arrow_forwardCan you answer part a-c if its true or false a) the AP3 and PI show auto- and cross-regulatory interactions, as well as they form obligate heterodimers to carry out the B class gene function. Therefore, if there is no PI expression, AP3 expression alone is not sufficient for establishing the petal and stamen identities. b) Angiosperm is a group of plants whose seeds are borne within a mature ovary (fruit). c) The organ in different organisms under every variety of forms and functions due to evolutionary development from the same or a corresponding part in a common ancestor is homologous.arrow_forwardthe photos below show flowers from two Arabidopsisplants. The plant on the left is wild-type (unmutated); theother carries a mutation that causes its flowers to havesepals and petals instead of stamens and carpels. Themutation inactivated one of the plant's ABC floral identity genes. Refer to Figure 10.8 and decide which gene(A, B, or C) has been inactivatedarrow_forward
- In Arabidopsis, it is well-known that a pulse of full-spectrum light during the night (in an otherwise long night) will induce flowering. This suggests that plants measure the length of night, and not the length of day. If the pulse of light during the night was blue light instead of full spectrum light, what would be the flowering time response of a plant with a knockout in cry2 (relative to wild type in the same conditions)? Explain.arrow_forwardplease explain if it would be elongated or shortened expression!
