If you were to isolate both copies of the LAR gene from the merodiploid, digest them with EcoRI and separate them using gel electrophoresis, what do you predict the gel to look like? Please select all of the statements below that reflect the drawing that you drew. The LAR + allele would have one band on the gel at ~31bp. The LAR + allele would have 1 band on the gel at ~15bp The LAR + allele would have two bands on the gel at ~12bp and ~23bp. The LAR + allele would have three or more bands on the gel with largest fragments closer to the well and smaller fragments closer to the bottom of the gel. The LAR - allele would have one band on the gel at ~31bp. The LAR - allele would have 1 band on the gel at ~15bp. The LAR- allele would have two bands on the gel at ~12bp and ~23bp. The LAR- allele would have three or more bands on the gel with largest fragments closer to the well and smaller fragments closer to the bottom of the gel.

Draw the expected RFLP results for the three individuals shown (1-3) on the gel. Enter the genotypes of each person below the gel (e.g. +/+ if the internal cut site correlates to a dominant genotype (+). A 100 bp VNTR exists at a locus in the human genome. Two parents have four children with different genotypes at this locus. Draw the bands you would expect to see on a gel for both the parents and all four children, and the genotype below each (e.g. 3/4). The parents have a fifth child, with genotype 5/5. What are some possible explanations for this?

A linear piece of DNA has the following EcoRI restriction sites: EcoRI site 1, EcoRI site 2. 2 kb 4 kb 5 kb a. This piece of DNA is cut by EcoRI, the resulting fragments are separated by gel electrophoresis, and the gel is stained with ethidium bromide. Draw a picture of the bands that will appear on the gel. b. If a mutation that alters EcoRI site 1 occurs in this piece of DNA, how will the banding pattern on the gel differ from the one that you drew in part a? c. If mutations that alter EcoRI sites 1 and 2 occur in this piece of DNA, how will the banding patterns on the gel differ from the one that you drew in part a? d. If 1000 bp of DNA were inserted between the two restriction sites, how would the banding pattern on the gel differ from the one you drew in part a? e. If 500 bp of DNA between the two restriction sites were deleted, how would the banding pattern on the gel differ from the one you drew in part a?
