alisha [4.7K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Luciferin is used, for example, in reporter gene assays to study gene regulation and function where expression of the luciferin-tagged reporter is a marker to indicate successful uptake of the gene of interest in recombinant DNA techniques. Luciferase is a heat-sensitive protein that is used in studies on protein denaturation, testing the protective capacities of heat shock proteins. Luciferase is an enzyme used for bioluminescence by various organisms in nature, most famously the firefly. The scientist produces a construct in which the regulatory region of a target gene is fused with the DNA coding sequence for luciferase

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is c. 3/16.

Explanation:

In the given question two traits being studied, the traits are flower color and seed shape.

This is a typical Mendel’s dihybrid cross. According to the question purple colour (P) and round seed (R) are dominant traits.

When heterozygous purple-flowered (Pp), round-seeded (Rr) individuals are crossed, four different types of plants are produced phenotypically in the ratio 9:3:3:1.Out of 16 offspring, 9 are purple flowered, round seeded pea plants, 3 pea plants are white-flower with round seed, 3 are purple- flower with wrinkled seed and 1 pea plant is white-flowered with wrinkled seed pea plant is produced.

If the sequence ATGCATGTCAATTGA were mutated such that a base were inserted after the first G and the third T were deleted, how
german

Answer:

Two

Explanation:

Consider the sequence ATGACATGCAATTGA.

Originally, there are 5 codons, translating to a minimum of 5 amino acids: ATG CAT GTC AAT TGA.

A base was inserted after the first G and the third T was deleted, the sequence become (assuming A is the inserted base);

ATG <em>ACA TGC</em> AAT TGA

<em>Only the second and the the third codon are changed and hence, their respective amino acid.</em>
