a. Explain how you could use worms transformedwith myo-2::GFP to find mutations that disrupt thestructure of the pharynx. How would the presenceof the transgene facilitate the mutant screen?b. Nematodes homozygous for loss-of-function mutations in a gene called pha-4 have no detectablepharyngeal structures. How could you use myo2::GFP to determine if pha-4 is a master regulatory gene that directs development of the pharynxin a manner similar to the way Pax-6/eyeless controls eye development?

You’re researching the effect of two drugs (Drug A and Drug B) on colon carcinoma cells in vitro. You begin by performing an assay to determine the effect of the drugs on cell viability and generate the data below in the graph below (A). With the aim of determining the mechanism of action of the drugs, you subsequently investigate levels of several key apoptotic proteins via SDS-PAGE and Western blot (B). To measure cytochrome C, you first separate the mitochondrial fragments from the cytosolic fragments and measure the levels of cytochrome C in each. You measure the remaining proteins using whole-cell lysates. B-Actin was included as a loading control. This data is represented on the right below. Part 1 Which drug is most likely inducing apoptosis? Explain your reasoning with referent to the cellular events that have taken place in response to the drugs, based on the data Part 2 Is it possible to determine from this data I the activation of apoptosis is occurring through the intrinsic…
Suppose you want to determine whether a particulargene X is important for specification of the pharynx,but mutations in this same gene disrupt embryonicdevelopment well before pharyngeal structures appear.How could you use myo-2::GFP, the myo-2 promoter,the DNA sequence of gene X, and your knowledge ofRNA interference (RNAi) to generate worms that lackgene X expression in the pharynx but express gene Xin all other tissues in which it is expressed in wildtype C. elegans?

Construct one plot including the data for the WT and the MC4R mutants presenting the differences in membrane localisation. 2.Obtain approximate Emax and EC50 values from the graphs. 3.Why the ratio of PE/GFP fluorescence is measured in the FACS experiment, instead of measuring only total PE fluorescence? 4.Explain the effect that each mutation causes in the function of MC4R, and how they can be linked to disease.
Consider the gal10D56 reporter gene. In 300 words or fewer, describe 1) the role of GAL7 in galactose metabolism and its importance for cell function 2) the mutation present in the gal10D56 reporter gene 3) the consequence of this mutation for GAL7 expression in wild type cells, 4) the mechanism by which certain mutations can suppress the effects of gal10D56, and 5) the specific purpose for using this reporter gene.
Link: Lack of RAC1 in macrophages protects against atherosclerosis - PMC (nih.gov) Could somone explain exactly what this means below? NOT HW just trying to get a better understanding on what this experiment is about. To produce mice that are deficient for RAC1 in macrophages, female C57BL/6 mice homozygously expressing the floxed Rac1 gene (Rac1fl/fl) [6] were crossbred with male mice homozygously expressing Cre under the monocyte-specific lysozyme M promoter (LC) [12]. Mice were genotyped for Rac1 deficiency as previously described
Provide a short answer for each of the questions below. For individuals homozygous for the Duffy gene mutation, which increases resistance to malaria, answer the following questions: 1)What impact do you expect the GATA → GACA mutation will have on the level of Duffy protein expression in red blood cells? 2)What impact do you expect the GATA → GACA mutation will have on the level of Duffy protein expression in endothelial and Purkinje (brain) cells? 3)Explain how this mutation leads to the level of Duffy expression you expect in the different cell types.

b. Neurospora has an arginine amino acid synthesis pathway shown below: ornithine citrulline arginine NH H2N H2N OH H2N HO HO NH2 NH2 ÑH2 Enzyme A Enzyme B Enzyme C ↑ ↑ Gene A Gene B Gene C Suppose I have a neurospora strain that has a mutation such that it will not grow unless I supplement the media (food) with arginine (but not with citrulline or ornithine). What gene is mutated? Explain your reasoning. C. Suppose I take the strain above that only grows with arginine supplements and cross it to a different mutant Neurospora strain that grows with arginine and citrulline supplements but not ornithine supplements. Assming genes A, B and C are unlinked and there is only one mutation per strain: i) What percentage of the progeny will grow on ornithine? ii) What percentage on citrulline? iii) What percentage on arginine?
