A protein has a molecular mass of 200 kDa as determined by gel filtration (=native molecular weight). When separated by SDS-PAGE (without a reducing agent present) only one polypeptide appeared with a mass corresponding to 100 kDa. When determined by SDS-PAGE in combination with a reducing agent (DTT) exactly two […]

Q. In the yawncat (a rare hypothetical animal), the dominant allele R causes solid tail colour, and the recessive allele r results in white spots on a coloured background. The black coat colour allele B is dominant to brown allele b, but these genes can only be expressed if the […]

Consider a system that contains two neurons and one cardiac SA node cell in a culture dish bathed in normal physiological saline. All three cells are healthy. Neuron A synapses onto Neuron B. Neuron B synapses onto the SA node cell. Neuron A has glycine in its synaptic vesicles. Neuron […]
