Question

Gene Replacement in both yeast and mouse embryonic stem cells involves:
A. Transposable Elements
B. Site specific recombination
C. Homologous recombination
D. Gene Conversion
E. none of the above.

5. Bromouracil
A. Induces transversion mutations.
B. Induces transition mutations.
C. Induces frameshift mutations
D. Is mutagenic because it more likely than thymidine to be in the keto form.
E. Can usually revert mutations induced with proflavine.

system found in essentially all other organisms. Which of the following do you expect to be true about
this bacteria?
A. It will have a lower spontaneous mutation rate than E. coli.
B. It will be unusually sensitive to the formation of double strand breaks in its DNA.
