which 10-bp primer can be used to amplify the following DNA sequence? 5'-GTCATTGCCTAGCCTAAGCTAAAGCTA-3'
which of the following amino acids yield TCA cycle intermediates when deaminated?
Aspartate and Alanine
Glutamate and Asparate
Alanine and Glutamate
Arginine and Aspartate
Glutamate and Arginine
1) we need two primers to amplify the sequence.
forward primer: forward primer binds to the other strand at the 3` end so forward primer has the same sequence as that of the given strand at the 5` end.
forward primer: 5`-GTCATTGCCTA-3`
Reverse primer binds to the 3` end of the given strand. so reverse primer is complementary to the 3` end of the given strand.
reverse primer: 5`-TAGCTTTAGC-3`
2) glutamate is deaminated to alpha-ketoglutarate and Aspartate is deaminated to oxaloacetate, Alanine is deaminated to pyruvate.
Oxaloacetate and alpha-ketoglutarate are intermediates of TCA cycle. so the answer is Glutamate and Aspartate.
