help with “generating genetic variation” and “modern
recombinant dna technology” stuff in cell biology.

1) transposable elements litter the genomes of
primates and a few of them are still capable of moving to new
regions of the genome. if a transposable element jumped into an
important gene in one of your cells when you were a baby and caused
a disease, is it likely that your child would also have the
disease? explain.

2) you have an olioligonucleotide probe that
hybridizes to part of gene A from eukaryotic cell. indicate whether
a cDNA library or genomic DNA library will be more appropriate for
use in the following applications.
A) you want to study the promoter of a gene A.
B) gene A encodes a tRNA and you wish to isolatena piece of DNA
containing the full length sequence of the tRNA.
C) you discover that gene A is alternatively spliced and you want
to see which predicted alternative splice products the cell
actually produces.
D) you want tonfind both gene A and the genes located near gene A
on the chromosome.
E) you want to express gene A in bacteria to produce lots of
protein A.
