i see. thanks a lot.

just not sure if my interpretations are right.

Dear all, I carried out an experiment to study apoptosis in cancer cells. In one of the prototype, I observed reduced GFP expression while the GFP expression in control remains the same before incubation for 24hrs. May I know if apoptosis will contribute cause reduction in GFP expression? I supposed...

Hey JackBean! Thanks a lot for your help!

Really appreciate it!

Sadly this is just a theoretical question. I doubt I will be given the opportunity to carry out this experiment

I spent quite a while thinking how to determine which parts of a protein face outward from the plasma membrane and which parts face inwards?

How can I go about determining the intracellular domain and extracellular domain of a new protein?

Can anyone please help? Many thanks in advance!

agree with jackbean that bacteria does not have the programmed life cycle (G1, S, G2 and mitosis phases). as long as the conditions are right, they go ahead to replicate. unlike eukaryotes which requires unchecking of different stages of life cycle. The cell cycle of prokaryotes is simple and fast. ...

Multigenic Description: Many genes are involved in the expression of a trait. Source: Specialized encyclopedia and dictionaries Polycistronic messages have multiple ORF's in one transcript and also have small regions of untranslated sequence between each ORF. But this multigenic definition (as also ...

it's really confusing! Orome, i did google but i found different definitions and can't conclude. and in the book, principles of genetic it says that multigenic means that the mRNA contains the coding regions of two or more genes. Then in a lecture note from a Uni, the lecture note wrote polycistroni...

Does polycistronic means multigenic? What I understood was polycistronic means that a mRNA molecule code for multiple proteins with spacer and overlapping genes while multigenic just means that a mRNA codes for multiple proteins (no overlapping between genes)? but then i see that many reference use ...

conclusion is.. our prof can be quite ambiguous with his questions!

cause according to "Principles of genetics", it says it is the cross between individuals of same ancestry.

hey jwalin,i chanced upon the correct term for F1/F1. it's called intercross.

haha of course.
