Question

Match the type of phenotypic change between the type of Gene and chain you're most likely to cause it. Each type of Gene and change may be used more than once or may not be used at all.

phenotypic changes
1. A protein normally localized in the nucleus is not localized in the cytoplasm
2. A protein acquires a DNA binding domain
3. Tandem copies of a gene are found in the genome.
4. A copy of a bacterial Gene is now found integrated on a human chromosome.
5. A protein becomes much more unstable
6. A protein normally expressed only in the liver is now expressed in blood cells.

A. mutation within a gene
B. Gene duplication
C. mutation in a regulatory region
D. Exon shuffling
E. horizontal Gene transfer

could I get some help with this problem I'm not too sure about my answers thank you

Explanation / Answer

A protein normally localized in the nucleus is not localized in the cytoplasm - A. mutation within a gene

A protein acquires a DNA binding domain - D. Exon shuffling

Tandem copies of a gene are found in the genome. -   B. Gene duplication

A copy of a bacterial Gene is now found integrated on a human chromosome. - E.horizontal Gene transfer

A protein becomes much more unstable -   A. mutation within a gene

A protein normally expressed only in the liver is now expressed in blood cells. -   C. mutation in a regulatory region
