What can gene therapies potentially do to treat cystic fibrosis?
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is B make cells produce a functional CFTR protein.

Explanation:

Cystic fibrosis is a disease that is caused due to the mutation in the transmembrane protein known as cystic fibrosis trans membrane conductance regulator or CFTR. Cystic fibrosis trans membrane regulator proteins helps in the formation of thin mucus and due to the mutation in CFTR the mucus becomes thick.The disease cystic fibrosis basically affect the respiratory system.

 If gene therapy is used to treat cystic fibrosis then it can replace the mutated CFTR gene with a functional one so that the cell containing CFTR gene can produce functional CFTR protein.

Question 1 (2 points)
Blababa [14]

The amino acids coded triplets in the 3' to 5' strand on the normalp53 gene of chromosome 13 are lysine, leucine, Glutamine, stop codons.

Explanation:

mRNA is formed by the transcription of DNA strand coding for  a gene.

Any mutation in the DNA sequence even a difference of base pair would cause formation of different amino acids and hence altered protein.

The amino acid is formed in the step of translation where codes are read by tRNA on the mRNA strand and correct nucleotide is brought to growing polypeptide chain.

In transcription 3' to 5'  strand acts a template strand. The amino acids on the p53 gene of chromosome 17 is

3'TTT AAC   GTC    ATC 5'    Gene sequence
