For the purpose of thinking about the genetics of the cross you’ve made, call the two microsatellite markers A and B. You can then designate the alleles A1, A2, A3, and A4 for the A allele and B1 through B6 for the B marker. In this cross, you are mating […]

Question: A red blood cell has an internal salt concentration of 150mM. The cell is placed in a beaker of 500mM salt. (a) Suppose that the cell membrane is permeable to water but not to ions, decribe what will happen to the cell in terms of osmosis. (b) If the membrane […]

You are studying genes and DNAsequences involved in the regulation of the grandoperon.When your lab’s strain of e. coli are in the presence of the sugar “grandiose,” transcription of two enzymes grandAand grandB increases. You have generated a series of deletion mutants (strains a-e), all of which affect transcription from this operon. You are able to measure the production of the two […]
