Northern blotting, RT-PCR, and microarrays can be used to analyze gene expression. A lab studies yeast cells, comparing their growth in two different sugars, glucose and galactose. One student is comparing expression of the gene HMG2 under these two conditions. Which technique(s) could he use and why? Another student wants to compare expression of all the genes on chromosome 4, of which there are approximately 800. What technique(s) could she use and why?
Describe briefly how MALDI and two-dimensional poly acrylamide gel electrophoresis could be used to identify a protein expressed in cancer cells but not in normal healthy cells.
Suppose that you have just graduated from college and have started working at a biotechnology firm. Your first job assignment is to clone the pig gene for the hormone prolactin. Assume that the pig gene for prolactin has not yet been isolated, sequenced, or mapped; however, the mouse gene for prolactin has been cloned, and the amino acid sequence of mouse prolactin is known. Briefly explain two different strategies that you might use to find and clone the pig gene for prolactin.
The ability to selectively modify the genome in the mouse has revolutionized mouse genetics. Outline the procedure for generating a knockout mouse at a specific genetic locus. How can the loxP-Cre system be used to conditionally knock out a gene? What is an important medical application of knockout mice?
Based on the NCBI Blastp and reciprocal analysis, are there any mutations to suggest that mus musculus is a good model to test the human FGFR3 gene. This is the only model we have to go off of to predict whether a mouse is suitable. I can’t seem to grasp what exactly I’m suppose to look for in these two photos.
Can you please help me by drawing a serie of schematic figures that demonstrates the information in the paragraph below. The carboxy terminus of the p53 protein acts as an allosteric regulator of sequence-specific DNA binding. This was demonstrated initially by Hupp et al. (1992) using a bacterially expressed protein. Recombinant bacterial p53 bound poorly to DNA, and binding could be enhanced by the addition of antibodies specific to the C-terminal region of the protein. Phosphorylation of Ser315 and Ser392 within this domain also enhance sequence-specific DNA binding. Dephosphorylation of Ser376 of p53 after IR allows the association of 14-3-3 proteins with the C terminus of the protein (Waterman et al., 1998). Stavridi et al. (2001) demonstrate that this interaction is required for p53 to activate the downstream gene, p21waf1/cip1, and for the G1 cell cycle checkpoint arrest response. Interestingly, this dephosphorylation event seems to be ATM-dependent, possibly by a phosphatase…
In the module, you have learned about P-element mediated transgenesis in Drosophila and the concept of using transgenes to rescue mutant phenotypes. In the figure below, you will see a wild type fly with its natural eye colour and three mutants with their eye colours changed to vermillion, white and rosy, respectively. A schematic of P-element mediated transgenesis (as shown in the lectures) is also included in the figure. Please inspect the schematic carefully and choose which of the following statements is true: I. Injection of the white experimental transgene into the vermillion mutant embryo will not change the vermillion mutant phenotype II. Injection of the white experimental transgene in the rosy mutant embryo will change rosy eye colour to red (wild type) III. Injection of the white experimental transgene in the white mutant embryo will not change the white mutant phenotype IV. Injection of the white experimental transgene in the rosy mutant…
What are site-recombinases? Describe in detail how cre- recombinase can be used to decipher the roles of specific genes and proteins in complex multicellular organisms? Explain how the cre-lox system can be used to examine the role of a particular gene in a specific type of tissue?
Discuss the method and experiments where Simplifying Protein Expression with myTXTL is used
There is a hypothetical gene related to the nervous system of Drosophila. Describe all the methods, steps, and key substances you need to obtain to use the following techniques in experimental design to study the gene: - In situ hybridization (to find the mRNA) - Immunohistochemistry (to find the protein) - CRISPR-Cas9 (for loss of function) - Expression vector (for gain of function)
You receive purified mRNA that codes for human insulln as well as plasmid pEf32(a+). Explain and motivate the experimental approach and specific components/features of plasmid pET32(a+) that you will use to produce . well purified bacterially expressed recombinant insulin.
Below are data from Jimenez et al (2022) depicting cellular expression patterns of the tumor suppressor transcription factor p53 (a gene commonly mutated in cancers). They explored oscillating expression patterns found in a mutated human cell line. Panel D shows measurements of changes in p53 mRNA levels measured using two different approaches; figure E shows measurements of protein levels from the same samples. The numbers on either side indicate the observed fold change (FC) in relative abundance of these molecules (note that any difference in values obtained between the two methods are not relevant for this question).
