Homologous recombination occurs in a heterozygote in which alleles D and d differ by a single base pair. The D allele has a G (a

GC base pair) at one position, whereas the d allele has a C (a CG base pair) at the same position. If branch migration causes heteroduplex formation across this position, what is the expected outcome

Answer:

Mismatch DNA repair mechanism recognizes the abnormal base pairing (G-G base pair) and may correct it by converting the D allele to d

Explanation:

The DNA mismatch repair can be defined as a specialized mechanism that recognizes and repairs errors in the nuclotide sequence (such as, for example, bases erroneously incorporated) during DNA replication and recombination. The DNA mismatch repair is a system that also acts to repair the DNA after damage. It has been shown that the DNA mismatch repair mechanism leads to the generation of a DNA molecule with one chain that has the nucleotide sequence arising from DNA repair and one parental chain. In this case, it is expected that the DNA mismatch repair mechanism will identify the abnormal G-G base pairing and then this system may change the D allele to a d allele by introducing a C base instead of a G base in the DNA strand.

Semenov [28]

Nucleotides can be radiolabeled before they are incorporated into newly forming DNA and, therefore, can be assayed to track their incorporation. In a set of experiments, a student-faculty research team used labeled T nucleotides to study the incorporation of labeled nucleotides into a culture of lymphocytes. They found that the lymphocytes incorporated the labeled nucleotide at a significantly higher level after a pathogen was introduced into the culture. they might conclude from this observation is that the Infection causes lymphocytes to divide more rapidly

  • Lymphocytes is a type of immune cell produced in the bone marrow and present in the blood and lymphatic tissue. B lymphocytes and T lymphocytes are the two main types of lymphocytes. T lymphocytes help eliminate tumour cells and govern immune responses, whereas B lymphocytes produce antibodies. A lymphocyte is a white blood cell type.

A volcano erupted and covered the surrounding area with lava and ash, destroying the plant life and remaining soil. Life eventua
jekas [21]

The first plants that will start to flourish in the area would be the ones that do not require soil for their growth, and are perfectly satisfied with getting lot of sunlight, thus the pioneers will be the mosses and the lichens. As there will be more and more mosses and lichens, the area will start to be dominated by them, and as some of them die, they will decompose, slowly changing the rocks, and giving birth to the new soil. Initially the soil will be very thin, so only plants with low requirements will be able to grow, mostly short grasses. The small grasses though will contribute to much higher amounts of biomass, so the soil will be becoming deeper and more fertile as the time passes. Than the shrubs will be able to grow in this area, and as they too will contribute to larger amounts of biomass, and making the soil deeper and more fertile, the trees will come at least and spread out in the area.
