Molecular Genetics and Mutation

The work done to map out the entire genomic sequence in humans was called

• gene mapping
• the Human Genome Project
• Operation Transposon
• Genome Sequence Project (GSP)

A protein that binds to the operator and blocks the RNA polymerase

• repressor
• activator
• corepressor

A small molecule that binds to the repressor and makes it inactive is

• corepressor
• inducer
• promoter
• operator

• CCUAGCU.
• CCTAGCT.
• GGATCGA.

What is made during translation?

• DNA
• RNA
• proteins
• amino acids
