How can alternative rna splicing result in different proteins?

Biology
1 answer:
andrew-mc [135]2 years ago

Alternative splicing is the process of gene expression. It results in a single gene being able to produce multiple functional proteins. mRNA splicing includes certain exons and excludes others. This produces different mRNA strands with different base sequences, which then translates to different polypeptide chains with different codon sequences. Different polypeptide chains will then go through processing to become different proteins.

Hope this helps! :)

Which best describes oxidation-reduction reactions?
larisa86 [58]

option-A if there is a change in the oxidation states of atoms from reactants to products, the reaction in an oxidation reduction reaction describes the oxidation-reduction .

We know that oxidation is a process that increases the oxidation number, whereas reduction is a process that decreases the oxidation number. An oxidation-reduction (redox) is a type of chemical reaction wherein the electrons are exchanged among distinct strains Any chain reaction that occurs when the oxidation number of the a molecule, atom, or ion modifications by acquiring or losing an electron is an oxidation-reduction reaction. Reduction-oxidation reaction any chemical reaction in which one species oxidizes (loses electrons) while another species reduces (gains electrons) Oxidized. defines an element that has lost electrons and increased its oxidation number

6 7. Mice can have brown fur, grey fur, or fur with brown and grey patches. What will be the result of crossing a parent mouse w
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

50% of mice would be grey (GG [phenotype is grey and genotype is grey])

50% of mice would be grey and brown (GB [phenotype is grey and brown])

GG is complete dominance

GB is codominant

The following sequence of double stranded DNA encodes a hypothetical protein called GEN in a bacteria. Transcription starts at a
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

A) AUG GAG GGU

B) N-MET-GLU-GLY-HIS

C) 10 amino acids

D) The stop codon here is UAA, instead of UAG.  If a tryptophane residue is added where the stop codon is, the GEN polypeptide would be longer

Explanation:

First we must obtain the the complementary chain or mRNA

A) AUG start codon is complementary to DNA TAC triplet, and GAG is complementary to CTC, and GGU to CCA (running from left to right towards 5'DNA direction (AAGCGGATACCTCCCAGTAGATGCTCCGGGGCTAGTGATTTCGAAC-5)

B) TAC corresponds to Methionine, GAG to Glutamate, GGU to Glycine, and CAU to Histidine

C) UAA is the stop codon, that is complementary where the DNA triplet is ATT.  From AUG to UAA, we can have 10 amino acids transcribed

D) If a trp is included where the stop codon is UAA, then the mRNA would be longer with a consequent traduction of a longer GEN polypeptide

Turtles Ahoy! (A real implementation of the scientific method) Did you ever wonder how baby sea turtles can run down into the oc
lord [1]

The scientific method is a research method that involves the question and problem definition, hypothesis formulation, goals, defining variables, collecting data and analysis, discussion, and conclusion.

<h3>What are the steps of the scientific method?</h3>

There are different steps to follow in a scientific method

  • Previous knowledge about the study object.
  • Definition and problem statement. The question for which there is no answer yet. A question the investigator wants to answer.
  • Goal especification. The goal is what the investigator wants to know.
  • Hypothesis formulation. The researcher hypothesizes in order to predict what is going on or what is expected to occur.
  • Experiment. Different variables influencing the proyect are considered. Data collection and analysis stages. This step involves testing the observations.
  • Results
  • Discussion and hypothesis verification. This step involves the deriving of the working hypothesis.
  • Conclusions.

<h3>What is a hypothesis?</h3>

A hypothesis is a scientific conjecture, not verified, that requires corroboration. It must be objective. Usually, it is written in the present time.

It is a claim of how it works a relationship between two or more variables. There must be a logical relationship between the involved variables.

<h3>What are dependent and independent variables?</h3>

When conducting an experiment, we must always consider the involved variables.

  • Independent variables are those modified or changed by the researcher to study how this change affects another variable and hence the results. This variable is not affected by any other one but influences or causes a reaction in other variables.

  • The dependent variable is the one influenced by the independent variable, and is affected by any change on this last one. Its response might be either directly proportional or inversely proportional to the change in the independent variable.

In the exposed example,

1. <em>Circle and label the question that is going to be investigated</em>.

How can sea turtles orientate into the ocean after hatching, paddle thousands of miles across the North Atlantic, and find their way back years later to the same beach they were born?

2. <em>What is the hypothesis</em>?

Turtles use Earth's magnetic fields and waves to orientate themselves in the water and on the ground.

3. <em>What is the independent variable</em>?

The magnetic field orientation.

4. <em>What is the dependent variable</em>?

Direction in which the turtles swim.

5. <em>What are the constants</em>?

Large glass tank filled with water and total darkness.

6. <em>Describe the data and analysis</em>.

Data,

  • Under normal magnetic field, the turtles swam towards the notheast.
  • Under reversed magnetic field, the turtles swam toward the southwest.

Analysis,

Turtles follow magnetic north and east, even when the magnetic field orientation is reversed.

7. <em>What is the conclusion</em>?​

The hypothesis is accepted. Turtles use Earth's magnetic fields to orientate themselved moving between the magnetic north and east.
