Concept explainers
To analyze:
An rII lysis mutation resulting from a point mutation is tested against numerous deletion mutations shown in the figure below that are able to form wild-type recombinants.
These deletion mutants are categorized in two groups named- series I and II.
The results are listed in the table below, “
Determine the segment of rII region that has lysis mutant by using the entire data of Series I.
Use the Series II data to locate the exact point mutation. Explain the justifications for the identified mutation location for both the data of series I and II.
Series I | Series II | ||
Deletion Mutation | Result | Deletion Mutation | Result |
Introduction:
The recombination frequency expresses the distance among genes. Least the recombination frequency, closer the genes are while greater recombination frequencies show that the gene distance is more.
Point mutation is either deletion or addition of a nucleotide in a sequence of gene, which has the ability to return in their wild type phenotype.
The deletion mutant line of
There are two types of mutants in

- Compared to the normal A allele, the disease-causing allele in sickle cell anemia (S allele) is missing an MstII restriction site. On a Southern blot of genomic DNA cut with MstII and hybridized with the probe shown on the diagram below, a person with sickle anemia, carrying two S alleles, will show Choose an answer below: a single band at 1.1 kb. a single band at 1.3 kb. a single band at 0.2 kb. one band at 0.2 and one at 1.3 kb. one band at 1.1 and one at 1.3 kb.arrow_forwardThe following recombinants are recovered when conjugation occurs between an a*d*g+ donor and an adg recipient. at d+ g+ = 84% a d g+ = 6% at d g+ = 10% a dt g+ = less than 1% What is the map distance between the a and d genes? 10 map units 74 map units less than 1 map unit 84 map units 6 map unitsarrow_forwardA 19 year old female patient is diagnosed with chronic myelogenous leukemia. Karyotype analysis shows that the leukemic cells of this patient are heterozygous for a reciprocal translocation involving chromosomes 9 and 22. However, none of the normal, nonleukemic cells of this patient contain the translocation. a) Describe a molecular test to determine if chemotherapy given to the patient described would be completely succesful. (That is, devise a method to make sure that the patient's blood would be free of leukemic cells.) Be as specific as possible.arrow_forward
- A yeast geneticist irradiates haploid cells of a strain thatis an adenine-requiring auxotrophic mutant, caused bymutation of the gene ade1. Millions of the irradiatedcells are plated on minimal medium, and a small number of cells divide and produce prototrophic colonies.These colonies are crossed individually with a wildtype strain. Two types of results are obtained:(1) prototroph × wild type : progeny all prototrophic(2) prototroph × wild type : progeny 75% prototrophic,25% adenine-requiring auxotrophsa. Explain the difference between these two types ofresults.b. Write the genotypes of the prototrophs in each case.c. What progeny phenotypes and ratios do you predictfrom crossing a prototroph of type 2 by the original ade1auxotroph?arrow_forwardThe intermediates A, B, C, D, E, and F all occur in the same biochemical pathway G is the product of the pathway, and mutations 1 through 7 are all G –, meaning that they cannot produce substance G. The following table shows which intermediates will promote growth in each of the mutants. Arrange the intermediates in order of their occurrence in the pathway at which each mutant strain is blocked. A “+” in the table indicates that the strain will grow if given that substance, an “o” means lack of growth.arrow_forwardGenomic DNA from a family where sickle-cell disease is known to be hereditary, is digested with the restriction enzyme MstII and run in a Southern Blot. The blot is hybridised with two different 0.6 kb probes, both probes (indicated in red in the diagram below) are specific for the β-globin gene (indicated as grey arrow on the diagram below). The normal wild-type βA allele contains an MstII restriction site indicated with the asterisk (*) in the diagram below; in the mutated sickle-cell βS allele this restriction site has been lost. What size bands would you expect to see on the Southern blots using probe 1 and probe 2 for an individual with sickle cell disease (have 2 βS alleles)?
