Autophagy occurs in the following sequence of steps___

a) Nucleation of autophagosome formation by ATG9

b) Digestion of the inner membrane and the luminal contents of the autophagosome.

c) Fusion of the autophagosome with lysosomes, catalyzed by SNAREs.

One of the buffers that contribute to pH stability in human blood is carbonic acid (H2CO3). Carbonic acid is a weak acid that, when placed in an aqueous solution, dissociates into a bicarbonate ion (HCO3-) and a hydrogen ion (H+). (See figure.)

If the pH of blood drops, one would expect ________.

You obtain 6 BACs (of known order, as shown below) and 7 STSs (of unknown order) that derive from a region of mouse chromosome 16 whose genomic sequence has not yet been finished.   

 

By PCR (using 20-bp primers at either end of each STS), you test each of the 6 BACs for the presence (+) or absence (-) of each of the 7 STSs. You obtain the following results:

 

You determine the DNA sequences of PCR products obtained at STS5 using BACs B, C, D, E, and F as PCR templates. The DNA sequences of PCR products obtained using BACs B and C are identical, but they differ by several nucleotide substitutions from the DNA sequences of PCR products obtained using BACs E and F. Oddly, PCR product obtained using BAC D appears to be a mixture of two sequences – one corresponding to the BAC B/ BAC C sequence and the other corresponding to the BAC E/ BAC F sequence. Briefly account for these findings, and explain how a single PCR assay could amplify two different sequences.
