What is an example of a reccesive gene?
In humans, the gene that codes for the enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase is an expmple of a recessive gene
Is insertion of the insulin gene in E. coli an example of gene therapy?
No, its a good example of genetic engeneering though. To be more specific, it is an example of recombinant DNA technology.
What is an example of 2 alleles?
The blue eyed gene and the brown eyed gene in humans.
Which example of genetic variation is a variant of a gene?
One example of genetic variation that is a variant of a gene is a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), which is a change in a single DNA building block within a gene.
What is and example of a gene?
An example of a gene is the BRCA1 gene, which is known for its role in hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. This gene provides instructions for making a protein that helps repair damaged DNA and maintain the stability of the cell's genetic material. Mutations in the BRCA1 gene can increase the risk of developing certain types of cancer.
What gene is heterozygous?
a heterozygous gene is a gene with a genotype with two different letters. For example, Hh rather then hh, HH (which are homozygous). Hope this helps. =)
What is an example where gene therapy went wrong?
SCID
What is gene therapy Explain?
If a person is lacking a gene that causes a disorder, for example Diabetes, and a gene can be inserted into cells that require the gene, this would be gene therapy. Parkinson's disease and X-linked SCID are two that are be researched.
Difference between a gene and an allele?
The alleles are the different forms of the gene. This is simplified, but an example might be, if the gene is "eye color," the alleles would be "green, blue, brown, etc." The variations in the gene are the alleles.
Why is cloning an example of cloning?
Gene Cloning is used to clone a gene of interest in a vector called plasmid. The chimeric DNA or rDNA formed by cloning is stable and can be used to propagate and sequence the DNA. producing vector containing inulin gene is an example.
The use of genetic engineering to produce medicines is an example of?
technology
What is meant by dominat and ressesivegene give an exampleof each?
A dominant gene refers to a gene that is expressed over another gene in the same position on a chromosome. It will always show its trait in the individual's phenotype if it is present in their genotype. For example, if a person inherits a dominant gene for brown eyes, they will have brown eyes regardless of whether they also have a recessive gene for blue eyes. On the other hand, a recessive gene refers to a gene that is not expressed when there is a dominant gene present. It is only expressed in the phenotype when there are two copies of the recessive gene in the genotype. An example is the gene for blue eyes, which will only be expressed when an individual has two copies of the recessive gene and no dominant gene for brown eyes.
