Answer:
A mutation in Ras protein which will cause hyperactivity will eventually lead to cancer.
Explanation:
Ras protein was first discovered in Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) and it is a proto-oncogene product. In normal conditions, it plays an important role in cellular signalling but in case of gain of function/hyperactivity it gets converted into cellular oncogene. In several types of cancers a point mutation has been reported in Ras protein.
Just like G protein, it is also a GTPase switch protein but unlike G protein which is trimeric, it is monomeric. In the plasma membrane, it is attached with the help of lipids like prenyl or palmitoyl groups. During signal transduction pathway when it gets activated, it downstream activates MAPK pathway and causes gene expression but when it gets hyperactivated it causes over expression of genes leading to cancer.
Question
Microarrays allow for
•a comparison of expression of different genes under different growth conditions.
• the analysis of global gene expression.
•the hybridization of cDNA (converted from mRNA with DNA affixed to a solid-state support.
• all of the above.
Answer:
• all of the above.
Explanation:
Microarray involves the collection and isolation of genetic samples (DNA) from a sample or tissue.
Microarray is composed of a large number of DNA material that is arrange sequentially for easy identification and use.
Microarray is used to compare the expressions of various types of genes that are growing under different conditions. It can also be used for analysis of genes globally.
