Sickling occurs in deoxyhemoglobin S but not in oxyhemoglobin S. Oxyhemoglobin has a small, hydrophobic pocket in a β chain regi

on located in the interior of the protein. In deoxyhemoglobin, however, this pocket is located on the surface of the protein. In deoxyhemoglobin S, Val 6 interacts with this surface pocket, leading to aggregation of HbS. Choose two amino acids that would be reasonable canidates for the pocket-Val 6 interaction.
(A) phenylalanine
(B) leucine
(C) serine
(D) arginine
(E) glutamate

Answer:

A & B

Explanation:

Leucine and phenylalanine have hydrophobic side chains, which means that they can interact with valine in the pocket. All other aminoacids on the list have polar (two electrically charged) side chains and cannot form hydrophobic pockets.

You are analyzing a human pedigree for a new disease and discover that the disease occurs with the same frequency in both sexes
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. autosomal recessive

Explanation:

In an autosomal disease, the mutation occurs in the autosomal chromosome, not in the sex chromosome. In autosomal recessive disease if both the defected allele from parent comes in the child then only the child would be affected by the disease. If the offspring have single defected allele than he is said to be a carrier.

So as the defect is not in sex chromosome the disease will occur in the same frequency in both the sexes and if parents are carriers which means they are not affected by disease than 25% offspring can have the disease because out of four offspring one can get both the defected allele, one from each parent. So the correct answer is A.
