Which pathway is affected by an inherited mutation in the atm gene?

Biology
1 answer:
Katena32 [7]2 years ago
7 0

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

photoreactivation

reactivation repair pathway

nucleotide excision repair pathway

UV repair pathway

p53 repair pathway

Answer:

p53 repair pathway

Explanation:

ATM gene or ataxia telangiectasia-mutated is a gene which codes for the protein kinase involved in the DNA double-stranded break.

The DNA double-stranded break is repaired easily as the protein kinase is recruited to the site of the break where it allows the DNA repair machinery to repair the DNA.

The gene also controls the cell growth therefore this gene is important to study cancer.  Since the p53 protein is a suppressor protein which if mutated is repaired by the ATM gene and if the gene becomes mutated then the p53 repair pathway is affected.

Thus, p53 repair pathway is the correct answer.

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

la selección natural es el mecanismo principal por el cual la evolución ocurre

Explanation:

Charles Darwin fue un naturalista inglés que propuso la teoría de la evolución o 'descendencia con modificación' mediante el mecanismo de selección natural. Acorde a esta teoría, la selección natural se define como el mecanismo selectivo de reproducción diferencial de los individuos mejor adaptados a su ambiente. La variabilidad es el la materia prima sobre la cual la selección natural actúa, seleccionado aquellos individuos que presentan combinaciones fenotípicas y genotípicas más adaptadas para sobrevivir en un ambiente en particular. Los individuos de una población que son 'superiores adaptativamente' poseen más chances de sobrevivir y reproducirse, y por lo tanto tienen también más probabilidades de transmitir sus genes a la siguiente generación.

What happens when the Earthis plates pull away from each other? What happens when they push together? ​
Bumek [7]

Answer:

Two plates pushed together create a convergent fault. If one plate is oceanic and the other continental, the edge of the oceanic plate will be pushed down. When two plates move away from each other they create a divergent boundary. When this happens under oceans, new ocean floor is created.
