A 1.0-kb DNA fragment from the 5' end of the mouse gene is examined by DNA footprint protection analysis. Two samples are end-labeled with 32P, and one of the two is mixed with TFIIB, TFIID, and RNA polymerase II. Both samples are exposed to DNase I. The results are displayed below. The DNA exposed to proteins is run in the right-hand lane of the gel. Control DNA is in the left-hand lane. Required:
What length of DNA is bound by the transcriptional proteins?

You have just sequenced a new protein found in mice and observe that sulfur-containing cysteine residues occur at regular intervals. what is the significance of this finding? it will be important to include cysteine in the diet of the mice. cysteine residues are required for the formation of α helices and β pleated sheets. cysteine residues are involved in disulfide bridges that form tertiary structure. cysteine causes bends, or angles, to occur in the tertiary structure of proteins.
