Gel electrophoresis is a method of genetic analysis which involves seperating segments of DNA based on their size and charge.

It involves cutting DNA with various enzymes, then placing the DNA in an agarose gel. An electrical current is then run through the gel. Because DNA is a polar molecule the DNA segments will travel through the agarose cell as the current is applied. Larger fragments will travel shorter distances than shorter fragments. Two plates with 2 different DNA samples will be conducted and the orientation of the DNA strands will be used to make an analysis by comparing the 2 plates.

kherson [118]

Answer:

a. inhibits cAMP phosphodiesterase, the enzyme that converts cAMP to AMP.

Explanation:

The phosphodiesterases are a group of enzymes that are capable of breaking phosphodiester bonds such as those between nucleotides in nucleic acids. The Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is a second messenger involved in intracellular signaling pathways. This molecule (cAMP) is hydrolyzed by the cAMP-dependent phosphodiesterase, which catalyzes the enzymatic breakdown of phosphodiester bonds (i.e., hydrolyzing cAMP to 5-AMP). The cAMP levels are modulated by the balance between its generation and the degradation via cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase.
