9) GAPDH is an enzyme that functions in glycolysis. In the beetle you are studying, this enzyme is constitutively expressed in all tissues. If you extract DNA from any cell type, which form of chromatin would the GAPDH gene likely be associated with? (1pt) A) Euchromatin B) Heterochromatin 10) You observe a large increase in the number of polyubiquitinated proteins that accumulate in the heat-sensitive beetle. Which of the following would directly contribute to this observation? (2pt) A) A decrease in the rate of translation B) A decrease in activity of the proteasome C) An increase in the rate of DNA replication D) An increase in rRNA processing in the nucleolus E) An increase in the global methylation of the genome

Step 1
Euchromatin is the less condensed and more transcriptionally active form of chromatin, which is consistent with constitutive gene expression. For the second question, we are observing a large increase in the number of polyubiquitinated proteins in the Show more…

After a search of nucleotide sequence databases, researchers identified an IRE in the 5' untranslated region of a gene encoding aconitase, an enzyme involved in the Krebs cycle. Which of the following pieces of experimental evidence best supports the claim that the synthesis of aconitase is controlled by a mechanism similar to ferritin regulation? (A) IRP binds to aconitase mRNA in the presence of iron. (B) The relative amount of aconitase protein increases in the presence of high levels of iron. (C) Oxygen consumption by cells increases in the presence of high levels of iron. (D) The levels of reduced electron carriers, NADH and FADH2, increase in the presence of high levels of iron.
