You have sequenced a piece of wild-type DNA from mouse. It clearly contains a gene, but you do not know what gene it is. How would you use the cloned wild-type gene to find out its mutant phenotype?
A. knock out
B. overexpression
C. QTL mapping
D. quantitative real-time PCR
Homework Answers
Answer: Knock out
Explanation:
- Here in this scenario we need to find out the mutant phenotype of an unknown gene.
- In order to find out the mutant phenotype we need to remove the unknown gene from the entire genome of an organism.
- A genome of an organism which lacks the respective unknown gene is then observed for its mutant phenotype.
- This kind of genetic manipulation is known as gene knockout.

You have three genes on the same chromosome - A, B and C. Each gene has two alleles in a dominant/recessive relationship. For these genes the homozygous recessive has the mutant phenotype for that trait, the dominant phenotype = wild type for that trait. allele A is dominant to a; phenotype a = mutant for trait a; phenotype A = wild type for trait A allele B is dominant to b; phenotype b = mutant for trait b; phenotype B...

5.) You have discovered mutants in two new gene mutants in Drosophila. One mutant, curl, has small, curly, nonfunctional wings. The other mutant, big, has enormous eyes. You decide to test if these two new genes are on chromosome #2, so you perform a three-gene linkage testcross using a gene that you know is on chromosome #2, trp, a mutant that cannot make its own tryptophan (and so must get it from its food). In all three...

1) You have two human liver cells (A and B) and you hypothesize that the insulin receptor gene in Cell A has a mutation in exon 1 and Cell B contains the wild type sequence. You extract genomic DNA from each of the cells. Of the following, what would be the most efficient (quick, precise and relatively cheap) way to test your hypothesis. a. Isolate protein from both cells, purify the insulin receptor, and determine the amino acid content. b. Sequence the...

2. A dominant allele H reduces the number of body bristles that Drosophila flies have, giving rise to a “hairless” phenotype. In the homozygous condition, H is lethal. An independently assorting dominant allele S has no effect on bristle number except in the presence of H, in which case a single dose of S suppresses the hairless phenotype, thus restoring the "hairy" phenotype. However, S also is lethal in the homozygous (S/S) condition. What ratio of hairy to hairless flies...

6a) You want to use homologous recombination to generate a mouse that does not express a functional XPC gene (‘Knock-out’ or KO). To do this, you want to delete exon 10 and replace it with a gene that confers resistance to the drug Neomycin (NEO. The usual second selection with tk we discussed in class is not shown here). Using the diagram as a guide: illustrate on the diagram where you expect crossing over to occur and (below the diagram)...
