Q
When would you use forward genetic analysis?
A
“What gene is responsible for mutant”
- disrupt homeostasis is based on random mutation
2
Q
When would you use reverse genetic analysis?
A
If there is a consequence on an organism
- disrupt activity of a specific gene product to assess its function
3
Q
Why are transgenic reporter genes important?
A
They are important in understanding gene expression patterns.
4
Q
What is the result of transgenes integrating randomly into genome?
A
The positional effects impact gene expression.
