Loss of 15q 12, the PWS/AS region produces different symptoms depending on the parent of origin. PWS results from the loss of paternal copies of this region. Deletion of the same region on the maternal chromosome causes AS.
Human SNRPN, a gene in the deleted region is monoallelically expressed in normal fetal brain and heart and in adult brain. Analysis of maternal DNA and SNRPN cDNA confirmed that the maternal allele of SNRPN is not expressed in fetal brain and heart. Maternal imprinting of SNRPN supports the hypothesis that paternal absence of SNRPN is responsible for the PWS phenotype. Thus it is reasonable to assume that PWS symptoms result at least in part from the absence of SNRPN. Of course the assumption is a hypothesis and testing is always a good idea in science. Which of the following experimental suggestions might provide evidence to support or refute the hypothesis that SNRPN absence leads to PWS?
a. use a b-galactosidase reporter to show that SNRPN is maternally imprinted
b. use a constitutive promoter construct to turn SNRPN on in the male parent's deletion
c. use siRNA to silence SNRPN in normal male parents
d. use a CCKa deleted maternal SNRPN to facilitate imprinting
e. use PstI to digest the male, deletion parents DNA and probe for SNRPN
An A=T mispairing leads to an A=C substitution. The other DNA helix will contain a(n) __ pair.
Suppose if life originated once on Earth, we might expect that it should be able to originate again, much like Lamarck hypothesized, but we do not observe this happening.
Assume you have 5mL of cells you need to treat with Hydrogen Peroxide, such that the final concentration of Hydrogen Peroxide is 5uM. How much of a 10mM stock solution of Hydrogen Peroxide would you add to your cells?
Determine which of the following best explains why cardiac muscle is incapable of tetanus, a sustained contraction characteristic of skeletal muscle?
A deficiency of carnitine results in muscle cramps, which are increased through exercise or fasting. ATP is required for muscle contraction.
Describe how each functions, and outline how the organs work together to carry out the role of an organ system. What quantity of the purple flowered, short stem plants in the F2 are expected to be pure breeding. Illustrate the work.
Describe the various mechanisms that regulate blood pressure in response to the rapid loss of a large volume of blood, compared with the loss of the same volume of blood over a period of several hours.
Degrade a monoglyceride that has an 18-carbon fatty acid attached to it by Ester bonds. You will have to degrade the glycerol component followed by the fatty acid in presence of O2.
Which protein complex directs DNA bending into loops that contact RNA polymerase and transcription factors bound at the core promoter or with protein complexes bound to proximal promoter elements? Which part of the lac operon is cis-dominant?
In humans the presence of chin and cheek dimples is dominant to absence of dimples, and ability to taste the compound PTC is dominant to the inability to taste the compound.
