Introns.


What is the noncoding segment of a gene?

There are many different parts of the gene that are noncoding. some main ones are introns, which just pretty much fill up DNA space, and gene expression regulators, which regulate the expression of genes. (operators, promoters, etc.)


What is the genetic aspect of Krabbe disease?

Affected individuals have two nonfunctional copies of the GALC gene. Parents of an affected child are healthy carriers and therefore have one normal GALC gene and one nonfunctional GALC gene

What is the part of a strand of DNA with regulatory sequences?

Noncoding gene sequences control gene expression. You may also be thinking of what is called "junk DNA" which is not junk. We just do not know what all of it codes for.


What happens if DNA pol 1 is nonfunctional in the replicated genome?

Nothing gets added on to the DNA. Pol I is suppose to repair damaged sequences , so if it is nonfunctional, the damage sequences remain causing a mutated gene sequence.


What kinds of genetic testing exist?

Direct DNA sequencing examines the direct base pair sequence of a gene for specific gene mutations. Some genes contain more than 100,000 bases and a mutation of any one base can make the gene nonfunctional.


Which of the statements best describes the promoter of a protein-coding gene?

What scientific term describes a change in a gene?

A mutation


What is an example of how an enzyme can lead to changes in gene expression and phenotype?

if the coding for an enzyme is not correct due to a deletion or insertion of a nucleotide, this could cause for a noncoding gene of an enzyme needed to complete expression of a certain gene(relating to phenotype, or what someone looks like) it could be more serious, enzymes are needed to complete reactions, without enzymes no reactions and things don't function properly.


Which of the following statements best describes the promoter of a protein coding gene?

The promoter is a nontranscribed region of a gene.
