Suppose a geneticist mutates the gene for the poly(A) tail-binding protein (PABP) in an eukaryotic cell line. The resulting muta

nt protein cannot bind to poly(A) tails. What is the effect of the PABP mutation in the cultured cells?A-Transcription will not occur in the cultured cells, because PABP is an essential transcription factor.B-Translation will not occur in the cultured cells, because mRNAs will be degraded at a greater rate than normal.C-Transcription will occur in the cultured cells, but the resulting transcript will be longer than normal.D-Translation will occur in the cultured cells, but the resulting polypeptide will be longer than normal.E-Replication will not occur in the cultured cells, because PABP determines the location of the origin of replication.

Answer:

The answer is: B-Translation will not occur in the cultured cells, because mRNAs will be degraded at a greater rate than normal

Explanation:

The translation process will not happen in cells that are altered, because messenger RNA (mRNA) breaks down at a much higher rate than normal. In such a way that the PABP protein would bind to the poly A tail of the messenger RNA and this is essential in the stability of the messenger RNA.

Answer:

(B)

Explanation:

Translation will not occur in the cultured cells, because mRNA will be degraded at a greater rate than normal.

The reason of degradation is that scientist mutated the gene in eukaryotic cell which means translation will only occur in eukaryotic cell not in cultured cell.

Aliun [14]

Mutations can be categorized based on the kind of effect they have on an organism. Blue eyes in humans are a result of a mutation in the OCA2 gene, which controls the production of pigment melanin in the iris.

This mutation is an example of a neutral mutation. Such mutations have no effect on an organism’s survival.

What is the role of coenyme a in the cell
Alexus [3.1K]

The molecule known as coenzyme A plays a key role in cell metabolism by regulating the actions of nitric oxide. Coenzyme A sets into motion a process known as protein nitrosylation, which unleashes nitric oxide to alter the shape and function of proteins within cells to modify cell behavior.
