Question
Can someone please help me with this question? Here is the the link with that contains the search results for dpy-2. http://www.wormbase.org/species/c_elegans/gene/WBGene00001064#0-9g-3
for iistance? 4. A major resource for C. elegans researchers is the WormBase, a collection of informatiorn on C. elegans genes, proteins, and mutants. When we do independent projects this semester, this website will be a primary resource of information. Start checking it out now-go to http://www.wormbase.org/#01-23.6 a. (0.5 points) Type dpy-2 into the search box on the top right with "for a gene" in the blue box. Take a look at the results - notice that you can get information about the gene and when it is expressed, the mutant phenotype, and the mutations What chromosome is dpy-2 located on? b. (1 point) Using the designations described on pages 8 and 14 of the handout, how c. (0.5 points) Click on the e489 mutant under the "Genetics" heading. What is the d. (0.5 points) Click on "Phenotypes" on the left menu. What other phenotypes are would you write the change to the DPY-2 protein in the e489 mutant? base pair change found in dpy-2? associated with dpy-2? Hint - if you click on the phenotype, you will go to a new page with a description.Explanation / Answer
a. dyp-2 is located on Chromosome 2
b. In this mutation, nucleotide change from G to A, and in amino acid G is change to R. This mutation is a mis-sense mutation.
c. The base pair change from Guanine to Adenine.
d. The phenotype associated are alae morphology variant, pattern of transgene expression variant.
