What is the evidence that SHORTROOT acts upstream of the SCARECROW gene?


What is the evidence that SHORTROOT acts upstream of the SCARECROW gene?
How might you test which of the trunk and torso-like genes acts upstream of the other?
You hypothesize that a DNA sequence located 3.0 kb upstream of the promoter of a gene you are studying contains an enhancer. To test your hypothesis, you use recombinant DNA techniques to insert a DNA fragment containing this DNA sequence into a plasmid also containing a “reporter gene.” Note:A reporter gene encodes for a protein that you can detect when expressed. For example, you could use the lacZ gene that encodes for the enzyme β-Galactosidase as a reporter gene. As...
For the maternally silenced gene Igf in mice, what is the evidence that the gene is maternally silenced? (the mutant phenotype is that the embryo is small) Question options: A. In a cross of a female (+/+) to a male (-/+) , one half of the progeny are (-/silenced +) and small. B. In a cross of a female (-/+) to a male (+/+) , one half of the progeny are (-/silenced +) and small. C. In a cross of...
Question 6 U In Drosophila, the sx gene acts as the master switch gene of the sex determination cascade and this gene product is "off" in female Berm cells. True False
What region is found near the upstream end of the coding portion of the gene ? a. regulatory switch b. promoter c. messenger RNA d. RNA polymerase What molecule must bind to the promoter in order for transcription to proceed? Select one: a. messenger RNA b. RNA polymerase c. transfer RNA d. regulatory switch Name the parts of the DNA (represented as blue, red, and green in the animation) that are found upstream of the gene and influence its expression....
Sigma-70 allows E. coli RNA polymerase to recognize: A. a -12 and -35 region upstream of the transcribed region of a gene B. a -12 and -24 region upstream of the transcribed region of a gene C. a -10 and -35 region upstream of the transcribed region of a gene D. a -10 and -35 region downstream of the transcribed region of a gene E. a -24 and -35 region upstream of the coding region of a gene
What evidence indicates that mercury is still leaching into the Wabigoon River upstream of the community of Grassy Narrows, long after the initial dumping of the original 9+ tonnes of mercury by the chlor-alkali plant (part of the pulp and paper mill) between 1962 and 1970? There are still high concentrations of mercury in recently laid down surface sediments collected at and immediately downstream of the former mill site. Ongoing symptoms of mercury toxicity have been experienced by both young...
The constitutive promoter that you placed upstream of your gene is expressing too much of the gene. Which of the following can you use to have it express less? ☐ Make the promoter weaker by changing the sequences of the -10 and -35 regions to their reverse complements ☐ Make the promoter stronger by changing the sequences of the -10 and -35 regions to more closely match the consensus sequences ☐ Make the promoter weaker by changing the sequences of...
What control elements regulate expression of the mPGES-1 gene? The promoter of a gene includes the DNA immediately upstream of the transcription start site, but expression of the gene can also be affected by control elements. These can be thousands of base pairs upstream of the promoter, grouped in an enhancer. Because the distance and spacing of these control elements make them difficult to identify, scientists begin by deleting sections of DNA that contain possible control elements and measuring the...
answer the following questions for the gene listed below: Tail Assembly Chaperone 1) Function (what process is the gene a part of? Why does the phage need this gene) 2) Where is it usually found in Mycobacterial Phages? (Begining? middle?, end? of genomes) 3) Is there a predictive synteny pattern associated with the gene? (What is upstream or downstream?)
