Cyclin B1, a key cell cycle regulatory protein in vertebrates, is mostly cytosolic before mitosis. Early in mitosis, however, th

e protein is phosphorylated by certain protein kinases and consequently accumulates in the nucleus. How can phosphorylation bring about nuclear accumulation of this protein?

Answer:

Phosphorylation within the nuclear export signal interferes with the function of the  signal.

Explanation:

In biochemistry, phosphorylation is the addition of a phosphate group (PO4) to a protein or other molecule. Phosphorylation is a major player in protein regulation mechanisms, preventing protein-catalyzed reaction product from accumulating in the body causing problems.

However, in some cases phosphorylation may cause nuclear accumulation of a protein in the nucleus of the cell. An example of this is the protein shown in the question above. In this case, phosphorylation in the nuclear export signal interferes with the signal function, resulting in protein accumulation in the nucleus.

Explain how a testcross can provide evidence for or against linkage.
MrRa [10]

Answer:

Testcrosses clarify linkage because each phenotypic class of progeny corresponds to each gamete type produced by the dihybrid parent.

Explanation:

  • A test cross involves the crossing of an individual with another phenotypically recessive individual so as to determine the zygosity of the former by analyses of the proportions of offspring phenotypes.
  • In order to determine linkage, the test cross shows that if the parentals are more than the recombinants, we can say that the two genes such as b and c  are genetically linked and therefore, they must be on the same chromosome.
  • Also, the test-crosses help to find out which alleles came from which parent.
  • By setting up testcrosses in which one parent is homozygous for the recessive alleles of both genes,we can analyze the gene combinations received in the gametes from the other, doubly heterozygous parent.

Alexus [3.1K]
In this case, the patient has to be moved into an isolated room or into a private room. Vancomycin resistant-enterococci are said to develop a resistance against vancomycin. Enterococci normally live in our skins and intestines as normal flora, therefore it does not cause any problems. In patients who are immunocompromised, they are more likely to be affected by these organisms which commonly infect the intestines, urinary tract infection and wounds. These bacteria are said the be difficult to treat with since there are lesser antibiotics who have greater strength compared to vancomycin.
