Answer:
Epistatic interaction of the two genes
Explanation:
In epistasis, the interaction between genes contradics one another, in essence, one gene masks the interference with the expression of another gene. As such any time two different genes contribute and have effects to a single phenotype and their effects are not merely additive, those genes are said to be epistatic.
Kytos actually means cell
The question is incomplete. The correct question is as following:
__________ studied the role of RNA in protein synthesis, specifically in the bacteria E. coli.
Answer:
Marshall Nirenberg and Heinrich Matthaei
Explanation:
Marshall Nirenberg and Heinrich Matthaei are two biochemist and geneticist who studied the functional importance of RNA in the process of translation (protein synthesis) experimentally in E.Coli.
Nirenberg and Matthaei discovered the first codon out of 64 codons present in RNA and they successfully performed translation (protein synthesis) in E.coli in a test tube. They decoded the first codon UUU (phenylalanine) by using synthetic RNA having only uracil nucleotides in a E.Coli and later they decoded further codons.
So, the correct answer is Marshall Nirenberg and Heinrich Matthaei.
