Whole genome transcription analysis of a Dictyostelium mutant has clustered numerous prestalk genes as being underexpressed. What physiological process/experiment would you study to look for an altered phenotype? Describe your results.
Activation of specific genes often depends on a site-specific transcription factor binding to its site in...
Activation of specific genes often depends on a site-specific transcription factor binding to its site in chromatin. Suggest at least 2 different ways that a transcription factor might be able to access its binding site PRIOR to recruiting chromatin remodeling activity (hint: think about when or where DNA is exposed).

You have a transcription factor and you are interested to know which promotors does it bind to. You will perform the series of experiments below, but they are out of order. Put them in order. 1.) Incubate with beads that have an antibody that binds to the transcription factor of interest 2.) Shear Chromatin into fragments 3.)solate chromatin 4.)Treat cells with formaldehyde 5.)Immunoprecipitate chromatin fragments 6.)Reverse the crosslinks

Describe how you would identify genes responsible for transcription in E. coli by isolating mutations in their genes. Remember that these genes are required for cell viability. Include all the steps in the isolation of the mutants and also describe how you will differentiate the mutants you want from those in other genes necessary for viability. This includes giving me the expected result for mutants in the genes you want.
Studies of existing cells to determine the minimum number of genes for a living cell have...
Studies of existing cells to determine the minimum number of genes for a living cell have suggested that 206 genes are sufficient. If the ratio of protein-coding genes is the same in this minimal organism as the genes of Escherichia coli (0.980), how many proteins are represented in these 206 genes? Protein-coding genes = ----------- The Escherichia coli genome contains 4377 genes and 5175720 base pairs. How many base pairs would be required to form the genome of this minimal...

HOX family transcription factors have narrow expression patterns, which are required for normal development. Given that eukaryotic genes do not occur in operons, how can the HOXA10 transcription factor simultaneously regulate the transcription of more than 40 different target genes?

Genetics question: GRS1 is a transcription factor that is expressed throughout the tomato plant. Peppers have two genes that are homologous to GRS1: one is expressed in the leaves and one is expressed in the roots. What evolutionary model explains this pattern? A) Neofunctionalization B) Subfunctionalization C) Dosage

The majority of eukaryotic genes lack recognizable transcription initiation elements (TATA, BRE, INR, etc). How do you imagine transcription begins at the correct transcriptional start site when these elements are absent?

Results from genome wide transcript profiling using RNA-seq revealed that from the over 6000 genes encoded by the yeast genome, approximately 800 yeast genes are regulated transcriptionally in a cell cycle specific manner. After looking through this list of 800 cell cycle regulated genes you notice that several genes are missing from the list that you know are required at only a specific phase of the cell cycle. Which statement(s) could explain how a gene’s transcript could be present throughout...

Explain the principle of “differential gene expression” and how different genes are expressed in different cell types. Describe in detail the two main mechanisms of the transcriptional regulation of gene expression. If you were going to “design” a transcription factor with an unlimited number of protein domains, how would you design this transcription factor so that it could take care of all of the transciptional regulation/expression of the muscle gene myoD.
