Consider the regulation of galactose metabolism through GAL4. Which of the following would result from a mutation that allowed G
evablogger [386]

Answer: Option C.

GAL80 would be able to bind to GAL4, and transcription of the genes involved in galactose metabolism would be repressed.

Explanation:

Gal 3, Gal 80 and Gal 4 are form of proteins which participate in metabolism. They constitute a galactose-responsive switch for the GAL genes When galactose is absent, Gal 80 bind to Gal 4, masking the Gal4AD prevent gene transcription and prevents Gal4-mediated promoter activation

suppose a cell wishes to make a protein that has 100 amino acid. How many water molecules will be created in the making of this
slega [8]
The answer is 99.

Amino acids <span>contain a carboxyl group (carbon-containing) and an amino group (nitrogen containing). Proteins are made by forming peptide bonds between the carboxyl and amino group of amino acids.
</span>If a protein is made of 100 amino acids, that means there are 99 peptide bonds (because the last, 100th amino acid will not bind the next (101st) amino acid). For each peptide bond that is created, one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms are taken. Therefore, one water molecule is created for each peptide bond. If there are 99 peptide bonds, 99 water molecules are created.
