attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Lysine

Explanation:

lysine residues on the histone tails of the octamer cn be activated by both acetylation and methylation patterns to influence accessibility or silencing of the genes respectiviely. for example, acetylation of H3K27 (histone 3 lysine residue 27) brings about a region of active chromatin allowing access to transcription activity while its trimethylation  will cause silencing of the associated gene at that particular area (no expression of that gene)

Over 1,800 mutations have been described within the CFTR gene. These mutations can be readily detected using PCR and DNA sequenc
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is - option C.

Explanation:

CFTR is a short form of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator protein which is caused by a recessive mutation in this protein. This mutation results in the accumulation of mucus in secretory organs.

As the disease is a recessive disease, for the mutant phenotype to expressed both copies of the allele required to be recessive.

The mother is negative for the CFTR. Hence, she will not transfer the mutant allele to her child So, the child would have a wild-type phenotype even if the father having two copies of recessive allele.

Thus, the correct answer is - option C.

sattari [20]

Answer: Point mutation is easily reversible, thus non-lethal

Explanation:

Point mutation is caused by exchange of a single nucleotide for another. These change is called

1) Transition (when a purine base substitute another purine base, or pyrimidine bases substitute each other)

2) Transversion (when a purine base substitute a pyrimidine base).

However, note that a point mutation can be easily reversed by another point mutation; so, the claim that a nucleotide difference in the Hsr12 gene caused the human disease is inaccurate
