Why it is important to place the gel in the correct direction in the gel cassette while running it?

Biology

k0ka [10]2 years ago

The gel should be placed in the correct direction so that the DNA bands can move.

  • DNA is negatively charged due to the presence of phosphate groups, so it can only move towards the positively charged anode, otherwise, it will not move.
  • So, when gel electrophoresis is done the side of the gel where the wells have been created and DNA samples have been loaded is placed at the side of the cathode, whereas the other side is connected to the anode.
  • When the current flows, the DNA fragments also move from negatively charged cathode to positively charged anode as per their mass and size.

The fur color in a colony of mice has been brown for many generations. One gene appears to code for the fur color pigment. In a
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

A mutation in the DNA sequence of the gene for brown fur  

Explanation:

The mutations are capable of changing the encoded protein product, in this case the gene that encodes for the fur color pigment. This mutation may have occurred during mitosis or meiosis divisions.

If it is a spontaneous mutation that occurred in the germinal line (meiosis) and confers an adaptive advantage, it will increase their frequency in the population.

Although the direct reduction of CoQ to CoQH2 is thermodynamically possible, this reaction is not a direct part of the electron
Nady [450]

Answer:

This electron handoff from NADH to FMN, as opposed to direct reduction of CoQ by NADH, a critical component of the electron transport chain is important for Signaling Transduction and Metabolomics

Explanation:

The NADH-CoQ reductase reaction is catalyzed by Complex I. In this course of activity, following events takes place-  

a) FNM (NADH dehydrogenase flavoprotein) is reduced by the NADH  to FMNH2 through following reactions –  

NADH+H++E-FMN↔NAD++E-FMNH2

b) In the next phase coenzyme Q  receives electron from FMNH2  through the the iron–sulfur centers of the NADH-CoQ reductase

c) The iron atom undergoes oxidation–reduction cycles to conserve  mitochondrial protein  as lataxin and hence transport protons from the matrix to the intermembranal space thereby Signaling Transduction and Metabolomics
