Results from our forummRNA transcripts, cis/trans-acting questions... help with these two homework questions. I have no idea where/how to start to figure these out. You have isolated several yeast mutants unable to metabolize galactose. All of the mutants fail to transcribe the GAL2 gene, which encodes the enzyme for the first step in metabolizing galactose. For ...

Theories - Origin of Life... is supposed to have produced in order for NS to select from? I should think that the frame shift mutation that resulted in bacteria that could metabolize the byproducts of nylon manufacture would be an example of this. As would be the several mutations that seem to confer immunity to HIV. Or ...

How can I find out what version of CYP1A2 I have?... an equation, and the coefficients of the equation would tell you the answer). This would have the advantage of telling you exactly how fast you metabolize caffeine (within the margin of error - which, of course, you can reduce by doing replicates), including any effects on caffeine metabolism ...

How can I find out what version of CYP1A2 I have?... ] http://www.snpedia.com/index.php/Rs762551, states that "The CYP1A2 gene encodes a member of the cytochrome p450 family of proteins, which metabolize nutrients and drugs. One well known substrate of CYP1A2 is caffeine; individuals who are carry one or more CYP1A2*1C alleles are "slow" ...

Re: Re:... (by means of mutations!), allowing them to grow better in the conditions they were put into. One strain, for example, developed the ability to metabolize citrate: http://www.pnas.org/content/105/23/7899.full See also: http://myxo.css.msu.edu/ResearchInterests.html and in particular http://myxo.css.msu.edu/PublicationSearchResults.php?group=aad
