To review:
The conclusion about the fructose-fed mice versus those without fructose from the given data in graph and impact of omega-3 fatty acids on memory in this test.
Introduction:
Fructose is a simple fruit sugar mainly found in plants and is a
Animal models are generally used to study the effect of the diet on the health of an individual. A trained mice to escape a maze chamber was used to study the effects fructose consumption on the memory. In the experiment the mice was fed with chow, which was supplemented with omega-3-fatty acid, fructose solution or both.
The results obtained after 6 months have been shown below in the form of a bar graph. In the graph shown below, * represents the probability value less than 0.05 and ** represents the probability value less than 0.01.

- 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?arrow_forwardMolecular Biology Explain/discuss how “slow stop” and “quick/fast stop” mutants wereused to identify different protein involved in DNA replication in E. coli.arrow_forwardMolecular Biology Question A gene that codes for a protein was removed from a eukaryotic cell and inserted into a prokaryotic cell.
