Gene Interactions

When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.

Gene Expression

Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.

DNA ligase is used on the leading strand and it joins any disconnected strand together O DNA ligase is used on the lagging strand which helps in joining fragments of the strand together O DNA ligase is used on the lagging strand and it aids in correcting mistakes on this specific strand O DNA ligase is used to maintain the replication fork structure
Which of the following statements about the processes of the central dogma is/are incorrect? I. Replication occurs only once during the life cycle of a cell. II. The entire sequence of a DNA molecule carries instructions for the synthesis of proteins and nucleic acids. III. The products of transcription all eventually undergo translation. IV.

Determine what amino acid will be formed from the given DNA strand below: 3’ T A C A T G C C G A A T 5’ Note: Prepare the partner strand of this DNA. Discuss how will replication happen by mentioning the enzyme needed then transcribe to form mRNA. Discuss what will happen to mRNA, then translate, mentioning the anticodon to be used. Look at the genetic code to know what amino acid will become part of the polypeptide chain. 1. Partner DNA strand 2. the mRNA strand 3. the tRNA 4. the formed amino acids
Which statement below is true? Select one: a. Okazaki fragments are produced in eukaryotic DNA replication but not in prokaryotic DNA replication. b. In both eukaryotes and prokaryotes, the template strand of DNA is read in the template’s 3’ to 5’ direction, while the new strand DNA is synthesized in new strand’s 5’ to 3’ direction. c. In eukaryotes, synthesis of the new DNA strand is from 5’ to 3’, whereas in prokaryotes it is random. d. In eukaryotes, synthesis of the new DNA strand is from 5’ to 3’, whereas in prokaryotes it is from 3’ to 5’. e. In eukaryotes, synthesis of the new DNA strand is from 3’ to 5’, whereas in prokaryotes it is from 5’ to 3’.
DNA is made of two strands that are antiparallel. If one strand runs from 3’ to 5’ direction the other one will go from 5’ to 3’ direction. During replication or transcription, whatever the process is, it will always follow the 5’ to 3’ direction using the 3’ to 5’ directed strand as the template strand. Therefore, if following is the DNA sequence 5’-CCG ATC GCA CAA-3’ Using this sequence as template after transcription no protein can be translated. Why? Presence of start codon Absence of start codon Due to mutation If you want to start the translation, what change you need in the second codon (from 5’ to 3’ direction)? Substitution of C with G No change4 Deletion of Both I & III
