Answer:

Muscle cells and skin cells look and behave differently because their genes are being expressed differently.

Explanation:

  • Genes are the sequence of nucleotide that has all the information about the functioning and characteristics of particular cells.
  • All genes are actually present in our liver cell but the thing that matter is the gene is expressed differently for different type of functioning.
  • So even having the same gene the cells might look different and behave different, its all about turning the gene "on" and "off".

A research team needs an antibody that binds to a protein of interest so that protein expression can be monitored. They use epit
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

C.The added epitope disrupts the function of the tagged protein

Explanation:

When an additional sequence is tagged to a protein to use comercial antibodies, there are several reasons why this procedure wouldn't work as expected (note that we're assuming the protein is being expressed but it's not possible to detect it).

For example, the sequence of nucleotide added to codify for the tagged epitope are removed during the RNA processing. In that case, the protein would be expressed without the epitope, so it would be impossible to localize it with the antibodies.

Also, it could be that the new epitope is affecting some way the protein folding, making it not functional. This way, it would be degraded by the cell so it wouldn't be detected.

Another possibility is that the epitope doesn't affects the protein folding nor its function, but during the folding ends up in a conformation that makes it inaccesible for the antibody.

In summary, the way as the possible answers to this question are shown, the correct option seems to be C:<em> The added epitope disrupts the function of the target protein.</em>
