The average gene in the human genome is approximately <u>27,000 base pairs</u> base pairs in length.

<h3>What does human nuclear genome contain?</h3>
  • One gene. The trypsinogen protein, an inactive precursor to the digestive enzyme trypsin, is synthesized using information from the TRY4 gene.
  • Two parts of a gene: These two genes, designated V28 and V29-1, each code for a particular region of the T-cell receptor protein, for which the locus is called.
  • Pseudogene one. A pseudogene is a replica of a gene that is not functional and often one whose nucleotide sequence has altered, rendering its biological information unintelligible.
  • These are sequences that appear often across the genome.
  • The terms LINEs (long interspersed nuclear elements), SINEs (short interspersed nuclear elements), LTR (long terminal repeat) elements, and DNA transposons refer to the four main categories of genome-wide repeats.
  • Two microsatellites—sequences in which a brief motif is repeated twice—are involved. The sequence: is found in one of the microsatellites that has the pattern GA repeated 16 times.

5′- GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

3′-CTCTCTCTCTCTCTCTCTCTCTCTCTCTCTCT-5′

  • The TATT sequence is repeated six times on the second microsatellite.
  • Last but not least, almost 50% of the 50 kb portion of the human genome that we are interested in is made up of lengths of non-genic, non-repetitive, single-copy DNA that have no known meaning or function.

Which energy source does not originate from the sun?
makkiz [27]
The only exception would be nuclear energy. Heavy elements like Uranium got their stored energy from ancient supernovae, that doesn't come from the sun. And fusing hydrogen is tapping energy that has been around since the Big Bang.
Hope this helped :)

Which of the following statements is false? - DNA polymerase joins nucleotides in one direction only. - The leading strand of DN
stiv31 [10]

DNA replication proceeds in one direction around the bacterial chromosome.

Explanation:

Replication of DNA is preserved across most of life. Therefore, even bacteria DNA replication occurs bidirectionally. During replication of DNA, A primer is required in the initiation complex before DNA polymersae can begin replication. This is because this enzyme works by adding DNA nucleotides at the 3’ end of an existing strand. DNA can have several replication forks on one double strand in which replication occurs. For every fork, there is a leading strand whereby the replication process by DNA polymerase is continuous and the lagging strand whereby the replication is done in bits by the same polymerase enzymes. The lagging strand will, therefore, require many primers. This is becaue strands of DNA are antiparallel yet the DNA polymerase has to move in one direction. Since replication can only occur in the 5’⇒3’ direction, the antiparallel strand will be done in 5’⇒3’ chunks that will later be joined into one strand.

How does mutation enable viruses to continue causing disease?
Hunter-Best [27]
Genetic Change in Viruses. Viruses are continuously changing as a result of genetic selection. They undergo subtle genetic changes through mutation and major genetic changes through recombination. Mutation occurs when an error is incorporated in the viral genome

Use the double-stranded DNA molecule below to answer the following questions. The first pair of nucleotides (bolded) contains th
krok68 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is 2. 5'-AUGUCAGGUACGCCACAU-3'

Explanation:

The template strand for transcription is 3'-TACAGTCCATGCGGTGTA-5 and RNA polymerase will add complementary mRNA sequence against this strand in the opposite direction i.e., 5' to 3' direction.

In RNA, A(adenine) makes complementary base pairing with U(uracil), not with T(thymine) and the rest of the base-pairing is same as in DNA. Therefore the correct mRNA produced from the transcription of this DNA molecule by the help of RNA polymerase is 5'-AUGUCAGGUACGCCACAU-3'.

Then this mRNA sequence will be used by ribosomes to synthesize proteins during the translation process.
