Garrod's information about the enzyme alteration resulting in alkaptonuria led to further understanding of these types of metabo

lic pathways in humans. phenylketonuria (pku) occurs when another enzyme in the pathway is altered or missing, resulting in a failure of phenylalanine (phe) to be metabolized to another amino acid: tyrosine. tyrosine is an earlier substrate in the pathway altered in alkaptonuria. how might pku affect the presence or absence of alkaptonuria?

The answer would be: It would have no effect, because tyrosine is also available from the diet

The pathway is different, alkaptonuria increased tyrosine is caused by decreased usage. In phenylketonuria, it is caused by increased production. While tyrosine is increased in phenylketonuria patient, it won't cause alkaptonuria because tyrosine could be found in the diet.

Create an experiment where you would use both a Southern blot and a Northern blot to determine if a newly isolated bacterium con
natta225 [31]

Answer:

■Gene sequences would be used to make Probes for both the Southern and Northern blots.

■The probes will be used to view the presence of each gene with the use of isolated genomic DNA obtained from the isolated bacterium

■Each probes hybridized to the genome shows the pathway is isolated and point of the genes were involved in the substrate catabolism

■The carbon source in the isolate is derived from the substrate inducing the catabolic pathway as RNA determine transcripts present

■Probes hybridizing to the same sequences would be used to determine the gene activity for the pathway as seen in the southern one

■since all the genes present in the genome couldn't be identified, the northern would be important to work on

■Catabolic pathway is determined by the same genes. Hence, the need for gene/transcript probes to hybridize to the transcriptome.
