Chapter 6, Problem 26P

Five rII partial-deletion mutants are mapped and then tested for their ability to form wild - type recombinants with six point mutants. The extent and endpoints of deletion mutants are shown below the rII region of the chromosome.

a. Use the data in Table A to place each point mutation as precisely as you can along the chromosome.

Chapter 6, Problem 26P, Five rII partial-deletion mutants are mapped and then tested for their ability to form wild - type , example  1

b. Use the complementation data in Table B to determine where the division between rIIA and rIIB is located on the rII region.

Chapter 6, Problem 26P, Five rII partial-deletion mutants are mapped and then tested for their ability to form wild - type , example  2

c. Based on the data and on your analysis, draw a complementation table for the five point mutants 55, 67, 74, 82, and 85 . (Skip mutant 91 for this problem.)

d. Add mutant 91 to your complementation table (assume it maps to rIIA).

A pair of paralogous repeats, A and B, have 96% sequence similarity and therefore can promote non-allelic homologous recombination (NAHR). They exist in four possible arrangements in a genome, illustrated below as arrangements 1 – 4. What is the result of NAHR between repeats A and B in arrangement 1? A.Translocation between chromosomes 1 and 2 resulting in monocentric chromosomes B.Deletion or duplication of the region between A and B C.Translocation between chromosomes 1 and 2 resulting in acentric and dicentric chromosomes D.Inversion of the region between A and B
Knockout mice are mice in which a functional gene or a group of functional genes are rendered nonfunctional by a special technique involving homologous recombination. Predict what happen to knockout mice which have their RAG-1 and RAG-2 genes “removed".
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?
