The technique of Sanger sequencing takes advantage of the fact that dideoxynucleotides (nucleotides in which the 3′ hydroxyl gro

up is absent) act as:
a) palindromic sites.
b) restriction sites.
c) chain terminators.
d) probes.
e) None of the other answer options is correct.

Ans.

The Sanger sequencing or chain-termination method for sequencing involves use of ddNTPs (dideoxyribonucleotide triphosphates) to identify the sequence of nucleotides in a DNA segment. The ddNTPs are nucleotide derivatives that lack both the 2'- and 3'-hydroxyl group, hence called dideoxyribonucleotides. When a ddNTP is added to a growing chain of DNA, absence of 3'-hydroxyl group leads to termination of growing chain as this ddNTP cannot make phosphodiester bond with a NTP and DNA sequence can be identified.

Thus, the correct answer is option C).

Put the steps of transcription in order
Komok [63]

Answer:

1. RNA polymerase binds to the promoter.

2. DNA strands are unwound and separated

3. The complementary RNA nucleotides are added.

Take a look at the attached picture. First, the RNA polymerase must bind to the promoter region to initiate the whole process. DNA must be unwound by DNA helicase, then it will make the RNA transcript, which consists of adding the complementary RNA nucleotides to the DNA strand. Then the transcript leaves the nucleus and begins translation.

An organism has a metabolic pathway that is controlled by an inducer through negative regulation. When this organism is grown in
beks73 [17]

Answer:

The inducer will combines with the repressor and inactivates the pathway.

Explanation:

Inducer is a term in Molecular Biology, which represent a molecule or substance that has the capability to activate the transcription of a gene, where by it joins with and then inactivates a genetic repressor.

In other words, the inducer binds with the repressor in order to prevent the RNA polymerase to combine to the DNA, and chemically produce mRNA, this is done by repressor proteins combining with the DNA strand.

Inducer specifically makes repressor to change shapes, which will make it not combine with the DNA, and therefore, allow formation of transcription, such that expression of gene will eventually occur.
