100
Oc and I- mutations lead to this type of expression of the lac operon.
What is constitutive expression?
100
When this protein binds galactose and ATP, it causes the repressor to release Gal4, thereby promoting GAL expression.
What is Gal3?
100
These genes determine the identity of structures, but not their formation.
What are Hox genes?
100
Humans have this many genes.
What is 20,000?
100
This scientist discovered transposable elements in maize.
Who is Barbara McClintock?
200
This gene product that is part of the lac operon is trans-acting.
What is the repressor (LacI)?
200
This protein inhibits GAL expression.
What is Gal80?
200
In flies, bicoid mutants are missing this region.
What is the anterior region?
200
This type of homologous gene is created by gene duplication.
What is a paralog?
200
This transposable element in maize is non-autonomous.
What is Ds?
300
These two mutations have similar phenotypes.
What are Oc and I-?
300
When DNA is methylated, genes are ____.
What is inactive?
300
Gap genes are activated by the binding of this protein to its binding sites.
What is bicoid?
300
Gene expression can be knocked down using this technique.
What is RNA interference (RNAi)?
300
In addition to transposase, this enzyme is needed in replicative transposition.
What is resolvase?
400
Glucose levels are inversely proportional to the concentration of this molecule.
What is cAMP?
400
In active genes, histones show this type of acetylation.
What is hyper-acetylation?
400
In flies, mutations in this set of genes cause the loss of the normal developmental pattern in alternating segments.
What are pair-rule genes?
400
This type of sequencing involves attaching single-stranded DNA molecules to beads, and amplifying the DNA using PCR.
What is next-generation WGS?
400
In Drosophila, a mating between a wild type female and a lab stock male will lead to this type of progeny.
What is normal progeny?
500
Lambda phage makes this repressor when it is in the lysogenic state.
What is cI?
500
These are three types of histone modifications.
What are methylation, phosphorylation, acetylation, ubiquitination?
500
The 5 classes of genes needed to set up the anteroposterior axis in flies.
What are maternal-effect genes, gap genes, pair-rule genes, segment polarity genes, and homeotic (hox) genes?
500
This is used to tell whether an open reading frame (ORF) is real.
What is codon bias?
500
These are the two classes of eukaryotic transposons.
What are retrotransposons and DNA transposons?
