OBJECTIVE GENETIC & PROTEIN PHYSIOLOGY During а discussiоn оn cellulаr cоmponents аnd their function, a student asked the instructor the purpose of messenger RNA (mRNA). Of the following, which is the most accurate answer? Directs the assembly of proteins on ribosomes to the cytoplasm (tRNA transports amino acids to the site of protein synthesis.) The site of protein synthesis is the: ribosome How would the NP student most accurately explain an aspect of the underlying structure of DNA to someone who is unfamiliar with genetics? “In the base pairs, adenine combines with thymine and guanine with cytosine.” Matching: Chromosome - an organized package of DNA found in the nucleus of the cell Gene - basic physical unit of inheritance Allele - one of two or more versions of a gene Histone - protein that provides structural support The cystic fibrosis gene's location is 7q31.2. This means the gene is located on chromosome 7, the long arm, region 3, band 1, sub-band 2. Cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs) maintain genomic integrity through which of the following mechanisms? CDKs can induce apoptosis (Cyclins activate CDKs — not the other way around.) Which statement is most correct regarding miRNAs? miRNAs are typically within introns of protein-coding genes. Which term describes an allele with an observable effect? Dominant Which term refers to the silenced gene of a gene pair? Imprinted What is the primary purpose of meiosis? To produce gametes with half the number of chromosomes In the context of an explanation of how human growth occurs, a student is explaining to a colleague the necessity and roles of different types of RNA in protein synthesis. Which of the following types of RNA is a result of the process of transcription? Messenger RNA The patient brings their consumer genetic testing results to the NP. The patient, age 72 years old, has two copies of the ε4 allele on the apolipoprotein E (APOE) locus, and the company states this increases the patient's risk for Alzheimer disease. Assessment shows normal cognitive functioning and no neurological or memory deficits. The NP could document the patient has a high-risk genotype with a normal phenotype.
