Answer:
b. Fetal Hb binds oxygen more tightly than adult Hb.
Explanation:
This is because Fetal Hb needs to draw oxygen more efficiently from the blood stream of mother which is a very difficult task. The more affinity binds the oxygen from the blood stream that is already bonded with Hb of mother This is the main reasons it has higher affinity than that of an adult Hb.
Additionally, speaking of myoglobin. A myoglobin always has more affinity to bind oxygen that that of a haemoglobin molecule.
Answer:
by altering the ligand-binding site of the receptor - by increased translation of the receptor - by decreased phosphorylation of the receptor - through a conformational change of the receptor...
Explanation:
The appropriate sequence of steps involved in recombinant DNA technology are as under :-
1) Selected gene is isolated.
2) Restriction enzymes cut DNA into fragments.
3) Fragments of DNA are inserted into a vector.
4) Vector and recombinant DNA multiply.
5) Recombinant DNA is inserted into host.
In the very first step, the desired gene/genetic material for cloning is isolated from the cell. To do this the cell is lysed. Cells can be lysed by sonication or using chemicals like detergents.
In the second step, isolated DNA/gene is cut with the help pf biological scalpels known as restriction enzymes. The vector (usually it is a plasmid) is also cut down using restriction enzymes.
In the third step, the fragment of the restriction digested DNA (gene) and the vector are ligated together.
In the fourth step, this vector in which desired gene has been incorporated is cloned to generate various copies.
In the last step, this recombinant DNA is inserted into a host cell where is expressed i.e. in host cell this desired gene produces its product (protein).
